Two Months

Our sweet little boy was 2 months old on Sunday. It is hard to believe. He is growing so fast!



Jack had his 2 month doctors appointment yesterday and the poor little guy had to get 3 shots :(. It made this mama reallly sad. He did great, he only fussed while they were giving him the shots and once I picked him up and loved on him a little he calmed down and he slept the whole way home.


Jack now weighs 10 and a half pounds and is 22 inches long. I was shocked! I knew he had grown and was getting heavier but didn't think he was a ten pounder yet. The doctor was very pleased with his growth especially since he was a little behind in the beginning. We are thrilled that we have a growing boy on our hands.



Jack is now smiling, he gave me his first smile a few weeks ago and has been smiling ever since. Now you have to work to get a smile out of him. I have to talk to him and make funny noises at him to get him to smile, he probably thinks that I am one crazy mama...haha.
Jack is doing great at tummy time. He is getting better and better at holding his head up. He also rolled over the other night while doing tummy time. It's only happened that one time but we couldn't believe it when it happened.
He has moved from newborn diapers to size one diapers. He can also fit it some of his 3 month outfits. This made me a little sad. My tiny little baby is growing up. Don't get me wrong, I am thrilled he is growing, it just seems to be going by so fast. He is changing every day.

Rob and I are so in love with this little guy. We are amazed that he is ours every day. It is truely amazing how much love you can have for one little person. He has stolen our hearts and we are truely enjoying every moment with him.

Jack Leslie, you have completely blessed our lives. We love you more and more every day! Love, your Mama and your Daddy!

I am Thankful for my AMAZING husband. He is not only an amazing husband but an incredibly amazing father to our son. He is my best friend. I have no idea what I would do without him. I thank GOD every day for bringing him into my life.


I am Thankful for my wonderful family. I have the best mother and father that anyone could ever ask for. I have the best sisters, who are not only my sisters but my best friends. I could not ask for a better family. I thank GOD every day for giving me such a close family!



I am Thankful for our precious precious baby boy. He has definitely blessed our lives. Words can't even begin to describe how I feel about this little boy. He has stolen our heart! We are so thankful to GOD for allowing us to be parents to this amazing little guy.

Happy Baby!!

Jack was 7 weeks old on Tuesday, he is changing every day. Last night I had him in his bouncy seat and I was sitting on the floor just talking to him and he gave me his first real smile! I almost cried, it was the sweetest smile I have ever seen. I am so in love with this little boy!Here is a picture I was able to get with my Iphone. Also, I was able to catch him smiling on video. Please excuse my voice in the video!

Great Grandparents

Last Thursday Rob, Jack and I headed to Auburn to visit my grandparents, Jack's great grandparents. I had my 6 week checkup at the doctor in Montgomery that morning and then we headed to Auburn. Mimi Sara & Papa could not wait to see Jack. I think it's definitely amazing that Jack got to meet his great grandparents, he might not remember it, but we have pictures to tell him all about them. We had lunch, visited for a few and then headed back home. He was geat the entire time. I love going back to Auburn and especially seeing my grandparents. We can't wait to see them again at Christmas!

First Road Trip!

Jack went on his first road trip last weekend. He did great, he slept the entire trip. We headed to Monroeville to visit my parents. We also went because my best friend from high school was in town with her little girl, who was born a little over a month before Jack was born. They live in Virginia and I knew if I didn't go home to see her, who knows when I would see them again. We had such a great time and it was so wonderful to see her and her precious baby girl. I miss her so much and wish she didn't live so far away. Here are a few pictures of Molly Anne and Jack meeting for the first time.




On Saturday we went out to lunch with my great aunt Alice. This was Jack's first trip to a restaurant. It was so great to see her and she couldn't wait to see Jack. How neat is this, we were at lunch with a 0 year old and a 100  year old (Rob pointed that out). Alice is 100 years old and still getting around. She is such an amazing lady. Here are a few pictures that I will cherish forever. Jack meeting his Great Great Aunt Alice!






We had such a great weekend in Monroeville. Jack enjoyed visiting with his MaeMae and Papa! He was so great the whole time we were there. He has been really fussy lately but while we were in M'ville, he was great. I think he likes being around his MaeMae and Papa. I told my mom that when we got back home if he started getting really fussy again that we were heading back to M'ville...haha. Here are a few more pictures from the weekend. Jack can't wait to go back!!

Strollin'

Jack has been VERY fussy during the day lately so yesterday we decided to get out of the house and get some fresh air. We went for a walk in the neighborhood, we didn't go for very long but it was nice to get out. It was the first time I have used my stroller and I love it!! Jack enjoyed the walk and fresh air too.
