I am a high tech baby!!

Jayci has more blogs then she knows what to do with and now she has her very own website at http://www.jaycimarie.com/ and this is addition to the blog that aunt Cheryl has setup for her at http://www.bossdoss.com/jaycimarie/

I am sure in time we will try to condense everything into one place but for now since I am updating my blog and Cheryl is working on hers please check out all of them and leave comments so we know what you think.

First doctor's appointment.

We took Jayci last Tuesday for her first trip to the pediatrician. Scott met us at the doctors office and when the nurse took us back she went ahead and weighed her and also measured her. She is now up to 10 lbs 10 ozs, 21 1/2 inches long and her head is 15 1/2 inches around. She also had to get her heel pricked to draw blood and she got a shot in her upper thigh. She did really well with being pricked but when she got the shot she turned shades of red I hadn't seen before! The doctor checked her from head to toe and she got a clean bill of health. We have her 2 month checkup on December 16th.

I'M ONE MONTH OLD TODAY!

Today Jayci is one month old!

A lot has been going on in this last month as Jayci has gotten bigger, she is eating more, she is more aware of her surroundings, she will now smile at you when she is not asleep and she is holding her head up more and more. When she is on her back she is beginning to look like she is making the starting attempts to figure out how to roll over. I know I still look at her in amazement and at times I can't believe she is here. I have loved watching Scott being a father to her and being a mother is awesome. Molly and Brittany have been such good big sisters and I know they will always be there for her. It has also been incredible to see mom and dad with their new grandchild and I know that Jayci is so very lucky to have such a loving family. It is just a couple of short weeks before our little girl gets to meet the rest of her family for Thanksgiving and I know we are all looking forward to that.

Love to everyone!

Jayci's first overnight trip and quick update.

Jayci will be a month old this Thursday and last night was her first night away from home since she left the hospital. Jayci and I will be spending the week at Mom's house and unfortunately we had to leave daddy at home. There has been so much going on in the past 3 weeks since we have been home and I have loved every minute of it. We finally introduced Jayci to a bottle last week and now I am no longer nursing her but she is getting some breast milk by bottle. Breastfeeding was going very well but then Jayci was needing more then I could give her so we had to start suplementing with some formula and I have to say even though I loved the time that Jayci and I spent together while nursing was a wonderful experience it has been nice now that others can give her a bottle. Now that we are at Mom's I can blog a little more I hope and I will also be trying to go through some pictures and post them as well. Jayci has been such a wonderful baby and has really had very few fussy times and has been really good at giving us a little sleep during the night. Jayci has also started to coo and laugh (even though she only laughs in her sleep) and we love to watch all the various expressions on her face and they tring to capture them on camera has been a task. I still can't believe how much she has grown in the past 3 1/2 weeks as she has already outgrown most of her newborn clothes and her hair and eyes are getting lighter as well. She still has a head full of hair but it has changed from dark brown to more of a blonde. Well it is time to feed her again and Mom and I are headed out to go shopping. Love to everyone!
