3 Weeks And Counting!

Mommy's learning how to post video!

My fav spot...

By the time I can go outside, my wingman outfit won't fit...darn! :)

Rooting for the Rebs from home! Silly boy, calling his broker.... he still hasn't learned how easy ETrade is!
Aunt Sam giving Chase some love!
And so are Auntie's Lauren & Shane!

Today I woke up and thought to myself that Chase felt a little heavier than normal. Now, I know I have been complaining about his constipation, but by looking at his chubby little cheeks, I thought that his heaviness may actually be a result of him eating....A LOT. Seriously, the kid eats for almost an hour at a time, every three hours (except the one break I get at night when he holds out for 4 hours - sleep time for me)! Just feeding him is a job in and of itself! So, to the scale we went and wouldn't you know, he weighs almost 8 whole pounds! Yup, 7 lbs, 13 ounces. And to think that only three weeks ago he had dropped down to 5 lbs 11 ounces. Our little guy would still not be classified as a big baby, but I am so proud of him for how fast he is growing!

As for his constipation, today we seem to have a break through - I think he is finally figurings out how to...um....get it out. We have had quite a few big ones today - maybe I should go weigh him again!

OK, as for the last paragraph, who knew I would be so excited about Chase's poo, but I'm telling you, that as a mom, these things really do excite you. Oh god, may I be a warning to all of those without kids yet - you get excited about REALLY WEIRD STUFF after you have a child!

This week was fairly uneventful...we are still stuck inside the house for the most part. Dr. Carrie wants us to wait until he is a little over a month before he can go out. But, we are having fun taking Rigley on walks and hanging out with family. Rigley is still super with him, she is very cautious around him and although she still tries to sneak a lick in, she pretty much leaves him alone.

Well, until I have more to say, I'll stop blabbering!!
