"Getting Big"

Denver is getting big. He weighed 8lbs. 10oz. at the clinic today. Denver had a follow-up Dr's appt. for his acid reflux. After discussing things with Dr. McKercher we decided to increase his Zantac to 3 times a day and we were able to get it grape flavored! Daddy thinks that the grape flavor is worse though, so we'll see if Denver indicates a prefernce. We are slowly getting used to having an infant. I think we have both been surprised about the amount of time it takes to get ready to go some where and how stressful parenthood can be at times. Denver has been to 2 family Christmas gatherings already.

Daddy was super excited to find out that Denver's "Bobcat outfit" fit. Be ready Bobcats your newest, biggest fan will be sporting your school colors for your next game!

Denver loves to play on the floor and kick around. Recently he has enjoyed laying on his boppy like this and then pushing off with his legs so he about tips over. It's very cute to watch. He is getting very strong with his head and does awesome turning it back and forth during tummy time and when he's being held. We are getting squirmier every day and now when he's being held he has to look all around to make sure he sees everything going on!

Mommy loves her baby boy and can't imagine a minute without him! The rest of my maternity leave better go slow as I am going to struggle leaving him.

Almost forgot...we are sleeping in our crib again and doing quite well. We had 2 nights where he slept about 6 hours straight. I woke up several times wondering if he was okay, but reassured myself without having to go check on him and eventually fell back asleep. Other than those 2 nights he's usually up around 3a.m. and several times if not at least close to half of the time he's big eyed and wants to play and be held.
