Family & Friends Baby Shower - August 12th

My sister and a couple close girlfriends (Jenn & Kellie) helped to plan a fun baby shower. It was nice to spend some time with all of these lovely ladies that get to be a part of Jake's life. Thanks for the fun night girls!

Jake's Newborn Pics

My good friend Jenny Weston took pictures of Jake the day after we got him (4 days old). She is an amazing photographer and has a special detail with newborns that I just love. Thanks Jenny!

Almost 4-week-old Doctor Visit

Jake went to the doctor yesterday. Aside from having a little procedure done (circ), they weighed him. He was 9 lbs 2 oz and just 2 days shy of being 4 weeks old. That means he has gained 1.1 in the past 12 days...good job little buddy! He was a little more fussy than normal yesterday afternoon, but overall he is doing great. He slept like he always does (up for 2 feedings at 1am and 4am)... Here is one after we got him home and asleep yesterday afternoon and another from this morning (wide awake!).

Jake's 2 Week Stats

At birth, Jake measured in at the following:

Weight - 7 lbs 11 oz
Height - 19.5 inches
Head Circ - 35 cm

At Jake's 2 week appointment, he measured in at the following:

Weight - 8 lbs 1 oz - 31%
Height - 20.75 inches - 54%
Head Circ - 37 cm - 48%

He's growing like a champ... And I guess I should mention how much I love our pediatrician already - it doesn't hurt that he is magnificent eye candy ;)

It's Boppy Time!

We picked up this cute little number at Babies'R'Us when we were looking for his nursery furniture. It is so useful, but Jake also looks darling in/on it. Oh, Lola happens to have taken a liking to it as well...we just have to watch her so she doesn't chew it up, like she tends to chew everything up right now.

Our Little Ute!

Pictures say it all! Doesn't he look good in red?! Funny story - well, I can atleast laugh at it...Steve on the other hand doesn't want me to tell anyone. I put this outfit on him for the first time and snapped these shots. After taking the pics I lifted him up to find he had peed up his back. Guess we know what he thinks of the Utes! Haha, good thing we have some time to teach him which team our family routes for!

Lots of Visitors...

Jake has had SO many people come and see him. I feel bad, because I haven't been good about getting my camera out every time someone comes over. He is definitely loved! Here are a few over the past 3 weeks.
