4 weeks ago...

Four weeks ago, I can easily say was the best day of our lives. Jaxson has truly blessed us. We can't get enough of him! This last month has been amazing. It really has gone by so quick. Everyone tells you the time will fly, and it's so true.
We had another doctor visit yesterday, Jaxson weighed in at 10 lbs 5 oz. He's right where he should be, in the 50th percentile for weight for his age. His cheeks are cute and chubby, and his thighs have a few little baby rolls, but really his weight is coming from his length. He's measuring 23 inches, which puts him in the 75th percentile for length. He also had a "sticky eye" (made me so sad for him). The doctor recommended putting breast milk in it, and so we have, and it's already much better. That breast milk is crazy good stuff.
He still is amazing us with his strength. Hi lifts his head and looks around. He kicks his feet and likes to push up with them. We gave him a rattle and he likes to hold it and move it around.
He is a very vocal little boy too. He makes little squeaks and ooohs. He even said "Mommy"..... just kidding. But he does make little sounds that actually sound like words with the cutest little faces, it's pretty funny.
Here are some photos of things we did this week.

Grandma Elaine, Great Grandma Floranna, Ryan and Jaxson

We took a walk down westcliff. The cold water classic was going on so there were lots of people to show Jaxson off to. We got him all dressed up for his big outing.

Yes, we had another blissful week with our little love.
