My Days & NIghts with Dexter

Our first month with Dexter has flown by! Things have been sort of a whirlwind as I have still been having to work, we had tons of company, and I have had a slow recovery! We arrived home from the hospital on Monday, after begging. We tried to come home on Sunday, but they wanted me to wait one more day. So- we were dismissed Monday around noon. We spent the remainder of our first day home napping! On Wednesday, Jason, Gracie, Parker, Emma, Grandma Ellen and their dog arrived. On Thursday, Coleen, Cece and Baxter (their dog) arrived. So- we had a packed house for a few days. Everyone enjoyed meeting Dexter and the kids had fun hanging out!

Month 1:
-4 days old-8.9lbs when he arrived home
-2 Weeks-9.4 lbs
-4 Weeks- 13.4lbs
- You are a really mellow baby!
- You love to eat and have been getting feeding blisters on your top lip, the doctor says that many baby's who are aggressive eaters get these. You love your bottles!
-We put you to bed around 12am, and you wake up around 3am for a feeding, and again around 6. You are easily calmed with a bottle and go right back to sleep!
-You hate your diaper being barely wet. If it is, then you let us know!
-You love your baths! It is the most calming thing for you!
-You do not love your binky. You will take it at times, but you would rather be held to be calmed down than take your binky.
