Growing Up

Thought it was time to update my blog. Weston is now almost 15 weeks old and is getting so big. According to the weigh me then weight us together method, he is weighing in at almost 15 lbs. We'll find out for sure on October 31st at his next Dr.'s appointment. At his last doctor's appointment he received four shots. He cried but ultimately took it like a champ! He gets four more at his upcoming appointment. :(


Food & Sleep:


We started giving Weston rice cereal on October 6th. He nurses before and after and only takes a few bites of cereal in between. It has helped him sleep better though. He's been sleeping for 7 hours for the first stretch. Eats. Sleeps for 2 more hours. Eats. Sleeps for about another 1-2 hours. I'm loving it!
Development:


On October 8th, Weston started grabbing for his toys! He loves his infantino rattle! He is still not rolling over in either direction but he does hold his head up better and tolerates tummy time a little better. Due to the major drool and constant hand gnawing, I do believe Weston is in the process of teething.


Other things:



I'm currently babysitting on Mondays and Wednesdays 10-2. I love it. The baby girl that I watch is our youth pastor's daughter and she is so adorable and easy to handle. She has a little brother on the way! Weston really enjoys watching her and she seems to enjoy his company just as much. The best thing is that I can take Weston with me and we can enjoy lunch with daddy every now and then.




Mike and the praise team recently recorded a live album and it is fantastic! If you're interested in obtaining a copy, you should definitely contact the church. My mother-in-law has a solo and she has such an anointed voice! I can't wait to get a copy myself.


That's about all for now. I'm going to attempt to update about once a week for now on, especially since Weston is going to start doing so many new things and I definitely want to have a record of everything! Til then...smile and love Jesus!!!
