2 months old
Today Jaxon turned 2 months old. I cant believe it. Time has gone by quickly. It seems just like yesterday. He has changed so much in the last few weeks. We are starting to get into a routine as a family and are getting use to the early hours and no sleep. We are enjoying being parents to such a wonderful little boy. It does help that he is so dang cute. Here are some things about Jaxon at 2 months...
*Now weighs 8lbs 20z
*Is 20 and 1/4in long
*Still has not reached his due date
*Smiles alot, although we cant get him to do it yet
*Is starting to trac things with his eyes
*Now wears size 1 diapers
*Finally is in newborn to 3 months clothes
*Loves to be read to by mommy
*Loves to be sung to
*Likes bath time, although he will cry when you get him undressed but as soon as he is in he is fine until you take him out
*Hates being naked or having his diaper changed
*Eates 2oz of formula every 2-3hrs
*Loves to have his fuzzy head rubbed, it usually helps him go to sleep
*Loves to be held by just about anybody
*Always has a stuffy nose so mommy has to clean it out and he does not enjoy that too much
*Has to be burped alot daddy usually is able to get the great big ones
*Has found his tongue and enjoys sticking it out
*Licks on anything that goes near his mouth. We have caught him sucking on his blanket a few times.
*Has super chubby cheeks...its a Gunter trait and I wouldnt change it. I just love it pinch them.
*Still is fussy when he eats but we are grateful when he eats and doesnt cry
*Loves mommy and daddy
He is the little boy of our dreams and I wouldnt change any single thing about him or the things we (as a family) have gone through since his birth.

Road Trip
My husband and family all decided to gang up on me and strongly "suggested" that I needed to get away for awhile. So I took their advice. We decided on a road trip to go see grandma Mitchell. Its so weird calling my mom that now, lol. We left Friday mid morning and arrived later that afternoon. Jaxon was such a great baby. He slept most of the way only waking up enough to cry cause he was hungry but fell right back to sleep. When we got there everyone came outside to greet us. My two little nieces were super cute with him. I would say where's the baby and they would point to him. They loved to watch him and give him open mouthed kisses with lots of slobber, but thats how they kiss. At times they would get over excited and throw a tantrum because we wouldn't let them hold him or touch him. My nieces both turned one this month and its crazy to see the contrast in size, weight, height, etc... While we were there my mom wanted to get the Easter pictures out of the way. Needless to say not everyone wanted to participate at the same time. One would cry which would set off the other, while one slept etc... Crazy so we will have to try again around his blessing.
So his dr's appt went better then I hoped. He currently weighs 5lbs 6oz and is 18in long. His pediatrican was very pleased with the progress he has made since being home from the NICU. He told us that after he gains a few more pounds that we could probably switch him to a regular car seat...YAY!! He also got his first immunization. He only cried with the poke but was fine after that. Such a tough guy. The bigger and bigger he gets the more I am beginning to think he looks like his daddy. At first everyone including me thought he looked more like a mitchell but now all I see is a miniature Sterling. He has my eyes, fingers, and lips but the rest is daddy. I feel very blessed that he is part of our family now. He has such a strong spirit and personality. I can't wait to see what that turns into. He is such a big part of my life right now and he is a constant reminder that there is a happy part of life that goes on. For now I am content with my life. I definately needed the road trip.
