One week old







On Monday we took Jackson to his first doctor appt. He is obviously eating pure cream because when we left the hospital last Tuesday he was 6 lbs. 2 oz. but on Monday a whopping 7 lbs!!! And he measured almost 20 inches. He is doing really great and is eating and sleeping like crazy. Since Monday he is sleeping at least 4-5 hours at a time at night and 3 hours during the day. Its really strange for me; all the other boys were 2 hours MAX. Anyway, we are grateful for that and adore having him in our home. The boys get worked up with every squeak and squawk and if he cries....ahhh they go crazy. "Mom, he needs something, hurry! Feed him or something!" They are a lot of help and all love their little brother. He is a really sweet tempered baby and really likes to make noise but doesn't cry unless he NEEDS something. He is just so sweet. These pictures were taken when he was 8 days old.
