All smiles!

Crashed...but, not for long!

Discovered the flying turtle on his bouncer seat

6 Weeks New!

Spending Blake's 6-weeks on this earth in Pennsylvania with family.  Grandma Nichols had a 'Welcome/Meet Blake' picnic on Saturday.  It was insanely hot, in the 80-90's our entire time there.  Blake did NOT like the heat.  He enjoyed a lot of time in his diaper, in front of a fan!

Just chilling in front of a fan!

Reflux

Not fun. We had a visit to the pediatrician today for Blake's worsening fussiness, off-eating habits, and a lot of spitting up. Poor little guy has reflux. We are started on Zantac, should know within 2-3 days if it's a winner. To help him out until it gets in his system he gets Mylanta twice a day. We've already noticed our non-fussy baby shining through!!!

A Chill Sunday

We went for a family walk downtown. Blake loves riding in his stroller!

We've learned that Blake has a schedule of his own, so we're going to try to adapt to it. This little guy us awake by 5:30am daily then naps around 8:30. No surprise since that was my wake up time on working days while pregnant! No wonder he's in his own routine! This means much earlier nights at the Thompson house here on out...

5 Weeks New!

This week we had lunch out in Culpeper with Auntie Ali!

First Smiles

I got at least 3 this morning...Yes, I cried like a baby!

And, my April Mamas group did comparisons...here was mine.  Blake definitely is the perfect mix of John and me!

Blake Fun!

We had a stretch of a playful Blake tonight...We can't wait for more of this.  He was just so happy, so content!

Check out the video footage we shot.

Kalli wanted to scope out Blake's 'crate'
