1 Month

Wesley is a month old. Though we're not so sure about the growing big part, he is growing and changing. Our camera has some issues and never works when we want it too. Arghhh... but we have some pictures though they aren't great

1 Week Old

2 Week Old


3 weeks old


4 Weeks old

This is what he has been up to.

Accomplishments
  • hold his head up
  • roll from side to side
  • rollover from his tummy (2 1/2 weeks)
  • sleeps 5 hours at night

Likes
  • cuddling with mom and dad
  • swinging
  • Reading with mom
  • be swaddled

Dislikes
  • baths
  • being naked
  • tummy time when i keep rolling him back over, after the second to third time he gives up and just cries
Nickname
  • Bug-a-boo
  • Wes

Biggest Challenge
  • Our biggest challenge has been weight gain. At his 5 day check-up his weight was down to 7 lbs 7.5 oz. Since he had lost more weight since leaving the hospital we had to start supplementing. His current stats are 8 lbs 2.9 oz and 21 3/8 inches long. He still is not where they would like him to be. He has to have his weight checked every 2 weeks. Being an exclusive pumper is very taxing but we are going to try to keep him on breast milk as long as we can.

He is a very happy baby and we love him.

  1. Yeah for an update! Keep them coming :-)
    He looks a lot like you (I think)
    You'll have to post some baby pics of you three separately so we can compare.
    Quite impressive that he can roll over already!

    p.s. You should update that he is over 10 pounds now. For 6 weeks old he is a good size-good job Mommy Sarah.
