Updated News..

So it has taken me a while to get back to the blog thing. Will has been keeping me quite busy and we have all been having issues. But we are back. I will try and be more regular. Who knew a baby would keep you so busy?? LOL!
Will is growing like a weed, he smiles and giggles a lot. He has found his hands and sucks on them regularly. We actually think that he might be in the beginning stages of teething as he is drooling so much and he is chewing on anything that is near his mouth. I thought it was a little early but they say it can happen. He just got his first haircut, if you have seen the pics on this blog you will see why. His hair grows really fast and was getting a little wild.
About a week or so ago we started to give him a little cereal, not much but it has made a world of difference is his sleeping habits. He usually falls asleep between 7-8:30pm and then will usually wake us around 4-5:30. That part is good, but somehow he is has been very difficult for us to get him to sleep in his crib. We have determined that our little man loves vibrations hence why he likes to sleep in his bouncer. But we have been making attempts at getting him in there and we have found a vibration/musical/light doo-hicky that we are going to get that you attach to a crib and it vibrates the crib. The other cool thing is it is voice activated, so when he cries it will start up again. I am hoping this will work. He is getting a little too big to be sleeping in his bouncer at night. I have told Lew though, the next kid(years down the road) will be put in the crib from birth. IT will be so much easier! WHO KNEW! No one worned me about this.
Now, Will is in his crib, I am hoping and praying that he will sleep tell his first feeding, we shall see. I have Seal's "Amazing" on our ipod playing over and over. That is one of his favorite songs.
Oh, almost forgot, Will has been doing really well on sitting him, not un-assited but he is so strong. We did get him one of those bumbo chairs, which he likes. I will post some new pics when I get on our other computer. It is the most wonderful thing to see how a newborn can change so quickly, you think where did those months go? Good night for now.

More Smiles..giggles..Easter Bunny and FOUR shots..ouch

This past week has gone by really quickly with new and exciting adventures to tell in Will's life. He smiles all the time now, when he wakes from a nap you can get anywhere between 5-15 smiles. It is the cutest thing to see his personality start to appear. He has also started to giggle, we have noticed it a lot in his sleep, to see a 2 month old laugh is the most amazing thing. We could just stare at him for hours, our new favorite show is the "Will Show".

We saw the Easter Bunny which was pretty much uneventful considering we had to wake him up, he looked like he got swallowed by the Easter Bunny! I think next year will be a little better, I just hope that he will not be scared of him.

Then Will had to get his 2 month shots this week which I was dreading because they say a fever and fussiness come with the territory. Will is usually a calm and quiet baby well, we saw the wrath of what shots will do to him! He only ran a fever for a day but the fussiness was out of control. He did however have the best sleep, as did I since he has been born. He almost slept through the night! The doctor said that he is actually doing really well with his sleep schedule and might start sleeping through the night sooner than we think. I can't wait for that night! The doctor also diagnosed him with a case of acid reflux, arching of the back, shrilling cries when eating. I am relieved that it has started to work even though we are only in our second day he seems to be adjusting to it and it is making his feedings more enjoyable for us both.

Will's Stats:

12 lbs. 5 ounces-75 %

25 1/2 inches-95%

Big Smiles

Will started to show first signs of smiling a couple of weeks ago but it has been really hard to capture it on camera since it lasts for about a second. But this week we have managed to get a couple on camera, some are half smiles but hey we will take them! On Friday we are going to take him to see the Easter Bunny, he has two outfits to pick from, I just hope that one of them fits him. It is amazing how fast they grow. They wear an outfit one time and by the next week it is too short in the legs!

Too Cute For Words..

I just had to put this pic up of Will. It is too cute. I am sure he is like why do I have to wear this sweater jumpsuit? But it adorable on him and matches his hair perfectly!

Say Hello to the Paparazzi!!

So my husband, Lew loves to take pictures of our little guy non stop. Sometimes I think he gets Will at the wrong moment and he just gets fussy. Then there are other times like this next pic that just make you think I am glad that my husband is obsessed with the camera! We probably have over 1000 pics and Will is only 7 weeks! But I would rather have a lot to show him as he gets older. You will get a kick out of this picture.

ZZZzzzzzzz....

Will enjoys sleeping in his bouncer more than anything else. We have just started this week to put him in his crib as he is getting to big for his bassinet. I have ended up sleeping in his room on the couch because I am paranoid that I will not hear him from our room that is 15 feet away! New mom jitters, I guess. In the video Will is taking a nap and making his cute little noises. I love my little bird boy!

Enjoying the weather..

We have finally been able to go outside! The weather has warmed up a little that Will and I have been able to go on a couple stroller rides, he usually falls asleep but sometimes he just stares up at the sky. Babies are so amazing! Sometimes I find him just staring at the ceiling and I wonder what he is looking at. I think that babies and little children have a special connection with the Angels in our life because they are untouched by all the chaos that life sometimes brings.

Little Will is definitely a gift from God and a gift from one of my Angels, my mom.

Love you mom.
