Lots of Firsts

For all those bugging me for a picture of Mommy and Daddy with Max.....

Max is doing great. On the 11th he went to the doctors because we were concerned he wasn't eating as well as he had been and the doctor thinks it's colic. But it's not too bad. He can be consoled. He loves to be swaddled and rocked by daddy. And even though he doesn't eat much for his evening feeding he's still sleeping pretty good at night....4-5 hours at a time. At that appointment, he weighed 7 lbs 11 oz. He must weigh over 8 lbs now. He goes back next week for another check up .... when the doctor told us that his next visit would be in 2 months we looked disappointed so she said that we could come back in a month if we wanted to....we didn't pass up that opportunity. Hopefully, we'll outgrow that soon....otherwise Max will be going to college and still coming home to go to the doctor every month. We've give up on breastfeeding but mommy is still pumping to give him the good stuff. We'll see how long I can keep that up with working and all. I'm okay with it, I just wish he would have caught on so that he can get his food quicker...see earlier posts about his lack of patience when it comes to eating.

Max also loves going on walks and to be carried in the front pack.


Max has had lots of first lately....

First St Patty's Day Parade. Looks like he had a bit too much green beer.


First walk. The weather was beautiful last week so we went on walks every day.


First visit to the park.


First encounter with a dog. He met Aunt Tammy's dog Shilah.


Mommy also had a first today....she went back to work. It was hard to leave him but I knew he was in good hands with cousin Rose and her little helpers......

Arianna

and Laila. You can see how much they love Baby Max.
