Say Cheese!!

Judah is 6 weeks old now and really filling out. We now have him on Soy Formula since we think he was allergic to my milk. He has been so much more pleasant. I am still pumping to build up a supply just in case. He also is getting over having Thrush, which is a yeast infection in his mouth...poor buddy. He's doing well sleeping and is cooing and smiling so much. Here is a picture of Judah in the adorable outfit Joyce, Josh and Madison gave him. I'm so glad he got to wear it. Justin had him laughing so much. I love it!!!

1 month

Judah is one month old. I can't believe it. This means that the time is drawing nearer for me to return to work and leave my baby boy. I am SO not looking forward to that. He seems to be growing and his face is changing. He is just precious and I feel like I'm getting a better handle on him and his cries.

We just got back from Savannah. My mom and sister threw a shower for me since I couldn't make it there when I was pregnant. It was so nice. It was a "Sip and See" and I got to see so many old friends that I haven't seen since my wedding. Judah did really well. We got lots of great things. I feel so blessed to have had so many showers. Seriously who has 4 showers??!! What a blessing. We also gave Judah his first bottle this weekend. I have been putting off pumping, but it is so nice. It's faster that feeding him and others get to help feed him!!

Pics: Justin feeding Judah for the first time. Madison meeting Judah for the first time. (She kept saying "He's so tute!") My best friend Brooke holding Judah at the shower.

Update

It's been 3 weeks and things are going well. It's not to say I haven't had my bad days, but we are learning each other and everyday gets better and better. Judah is so bright-eyed, up to 8 lbs. 6 oz. and growing like a weed. He has a bit of acid reflux so he's on baby Zantac. He also has a really stuffy nose right now and snores like crazy. Poor thing. I feel so helpless when he can't breathe.
I am currently nursing him and that seems to be going well. It is sometimes really draining but I know it's best for him so I'm trying to endure.
Justin has been AMAZING. He is the best dad ever. When I can't get Judah to calm down, he takes over and like magic he's fine. He changes diapers without me asking, he takes the night shift so i can get some rest...I am so blessed to have an involved husband that cares so much!!! Check out his blog for more pictures of Judah.
We are heading to Savannah (my hometown) for a "Sip and See" shower. I couldn't make it there while I was preggo, so now we get to show him off to old family and friends. It should be interesting traveling with him and probably everything but the kitchen sink! Ha.
Gotta go for now...
