Contrary to what it looks like, we've had lack of sleep the last few days... Dalton just loves to be cuddled...which is more than fine for me, except for when he wants to be cuddled in the middle of the night. I think the dark circles under our eyes tells this story oh too well. :O) These two pictures are of Dalton one week ago today.... HAPPY TWO WEEK BIRTHDAY! Just so everyone is aware, Dalton is on our bed in quite a few of these pictures...I do not leave him on there. It's normally just enough time to grab the camera by the bed and take a couple shots of him. Dalton does love to cuddle in bed with Mommy and Daddy every morning. It's become our favorite time of the day.


This is
Zac, the little boy I baby sat. We get visits by him and his mommy sometimes. :O)
Zac told
Britany that he needed to come see me and baby Dalton or we would miss him. He is too cute. It looks like
Zac is holding Dalton, but actually he is giving him a hug. :O)

He sleeps so well....in our arms... :O)

I love this little guy!!

OK... Dalton FINALLY doesn't SCREAM when you undress him!
YAY!! It was so sad changing his diaper, giving him a bath, or changing his clothes....he would just look at you and cry. It sort of looks like he is mad in this picture, but he was actually just "telling us stories".

:O) This is one of my favorite faces he makes... It makes me laugh
every time.

Dalton's new favorite way to hang out with Daddy. My arms aren't ling enough, but Dad is perfect.

He looked like such a little boy in this outfit.... notice the pants are rolled... we have to roll ALL his pants.

It was so hot in our apartment yesterday and the day before so Dalton hung out in some
onesies...look how huge they are on him.... poor little guy. And the are Newborn size.

This was a big moment in Dalton's life. He got to wear his first
OSU shirt! He was swimming in it though...guess it will fit for a while!

LOOK at THOSE EYES!

This is Dalton saying "Seriously Mom you take too many pictures."

Daddy is so excited for Dalton's first
OSU shirt! Notice how Dalton just stares at his Daddy. He thinks he is pretty cool.
We had our 2 week appointment a week ago today. Here are Dalton's stats:
Height 20 in (at birth he was 19 in)...... 25
th percentile
Weight 6lbs 3.5oz (at birth 6lbs 12 oz)..... I know :O( He hasn't gained enough. He did get down to 5lbs 13 oz so he is working on it.... and we have to go in often for weight checks....today he was at 6lbs 8oz. He is in the 5
th percentile
Overall he looks great, he just needs to gain some weight. He has been having more than the minimal wet and dirty diapers each day, so we know he gets plenty to eat.
OH and story of the week.... So Dalton is the best at tricking us. He pees on us and himself really often. He is so good at kicking so much that the diaper wipe we put over his little wee wee normally gets pushed to the side and then he aims and gets us! It's so hard to be quick enough. Well a couple days ago Dalton got me good and Jed was getting a good laugh when all of a sudden Dalton fired this huge toot and out SHOT poo EVERYWHERE.... when I say shot, I mean shot... it was projectile! I was splattered all over my shirt and I was a good 12-15 inches away.... Needless to say I got out of diaper duty for one week! :O) I know this doesn't sound so funny but if you were there you would be on the floor laughing!
Lol, they look cute and innocent until they poop on you. Fun stuff!
ReplyDeleteGet a pee pee tee-pee! There is a pattern for them out of flannel on little birdie secrets and they are easy to make! I made some for our friend Ailinh that had a baby the same week you did and she and Aaron LOVE them. No more sprays or wet onsies.

By the way, I was excited to see Dalton in OSU gear!
he looks so little and sweet!
ReplyDeleteLOL! Hilarious! That happened to me when I was changing my cousins, so yeah I know you're talking about, but he peed on the wall behind me- totally missed me. HA! Dalton is a cutie. Leila lost weight too from her birth to 2 weeks appointment, and she seemed to gain after that, so I wouldn't worry about it a ton. Just keep feeding him regularly and he'll get gaining in in no time! We're so excited to meet the little guy and have you guys by us. LOVE you!
ReplyDeleteHa Ha Ha! I love you Kera! You are so funny! I love your blogs! The pic of Jed holding Dalton is SO cute! Jed makes Dalton look SO SO SO tiny! I mean, he is tiny, but that pic he just looks even tinnier! He is SO cute and I want to come visit again soon before I can't anymore! ; (
ReplyDeletelol... Kera you crack me up. I know you're busy cleaning up, but I hope we get a chance to come by and say goodbye before you leave! Little Dalton is such a cutie, and he so looks like you! As for your story of the week... Josh used to say when Jericho was tiny, "How does something so wrong come outta something so cute!" or something like that... ;)
