We live!

Yes it has been awhile since a post! So sorry! The little guy still doesn't sleep too much during the day so there is little time for blogging! This is only getting done now because i am back at school and using my prep time! So here are some updates:
- Logan is still eating about every two hours during the day, however we are VERY happy to report that he is going much longer at night! He now eats around 9 and sleeps till around 3, after that bottle he goes back to sleep till around 5- when he wakes up but doesn't eat again until 7! So much better than every 2 hours!
- Logan just had his two-month check up and he is a beast! He weighs 13.5 lbs (80th percentile), his head size is in the 50th percentile but he measures in at a huge 25 inches!! He is so tall he is off the percentile chart!! Do i see some UCONN basketball in his future??
- Logan smiles all the time and giggles too. The best is when he does this while drinking a bottle as he is falling asleep! He enjoys being changed and laughs through the whole thing!
- The soy formula is still working pretty well. Even though Logan is a huge dribbler, he doesn't seem to get the upset stomache he was getting before.
- Logan LOVES his multi-color dragonfly and his elmo. He also enjoys staring (and laughing) at fake trees, lamps and fans ;o)

My school computer doesn't let me upload photos online but we have some cute ones we'll share with you soon!

Pictures!!




Sorry I haven't posted in a while! The little guy doesn't sleep much! He will only sleep in your arms which prevents me from doing much of anything else!! Here are some pics Lindsey took of Logan when he was almost 4 weeks! Logan is almost 6 weeks now and is over 11 pounds!

From the Mommy

I am alive and well! Yes after hours of labor, a late afternoon c-section, several days in the hospital, abnormal post partum swelling (seriously i looked like a marshmallow and was so big my 9 month maternity clothes didn't even fit!) and many late night feedings....i live!

Logan is now two weeks and 4 days old and doing very well! He had his two week check up and has regained his birth weight and more! (For those of you that didn't know, i started breast feeding in the hospital but my milk never came in so Logan lost over a lb while we were there...it was very sad :o( So now he is a bottle baby!) He is now 8 lbs and 5 oz and grew from 20.5 to 21.5 inches! He is so big and strong!

We are also happy to say he is a very very good baby! He rarely cries and takes very long naps! He takes his bottle like a champ and burps like a king! While he does get up for 3-4 night feedings he normally falls right back to sleep so we are very happy about that!!

My stomach is starting to feel normal again so Logan and i have been meeting up with my mom for lots of mall walking. Logan sleeps really well in the car/stroller and i'm working on losing that baby weight!

Wish us all luck!
We'll post an update again soon!

Still at the hospital

Just wanted to do a quick update. Dani and Logan are still in the hospital. 5 days now but hopefully we get discharged today.

Not Waiting any more!

Long story short:
Dani begins labor at 11pm friday evening
Dani delivers baby at 6:15pm Saturday afternoon (19 and a 1/4 hrs) after trying for 4 hours then having to have emergency surgery anyway
Dani is exhausted and still at hospital
Chris is home typing this, feeding the dog and then heading back to the hospital!

Still Waiting!

Dani is still doing well and up and about. In fact she probably gets more exercise than me! She walks at least an hour every day and is feeling good. The little man is due tomorrow so if there is any news we will text everyone to let you know.

Waiting Game

Everything is still going really well. I am happy to say that i still feel great and have been walking for about a hour every day! At my doctors appointment last week they said i was making good progress and could go any time. Chris and I are ready for the little guy to get here so hopefully soon! We'll keep you posted on any changes!
