Eric Nicholas was born December 22, 2012 (one day before his due date). He weighed 7 lbs 11 oz and was 21 inches long (then he shrunk down to 20 inches because he had the nice little cone shape on his head).
He is a great little baby! We just love him!
Last week at his check up he was 9 lbs. We can't believe that Tuesday will be a month. He is growing very fast.
Aside from having his day's and nights still kind of flopped, he is doing great! He loves showers and being on his tummy (well most of the time to the tummy part). He doesn't like to be swaddled anymore because he would rather just be in his nice soft thick blankets. Well he's a keeper :)
He made Christmas Eve and Christmas kind of fun... and most definitely very different. I looked at some gifts we received throughout the following week and had to ask who they came from because I didn't remember opening them. We spent the night at my parents house that night, and every time Eric cried Mia-the dog was trying to figure out where on earth that noise was coming from, and always got a very concerned look on her face, it was kind of fun. Christmas afternoon we headed over to the Gassaway's house just in time for Tom's Skype home. He seemed to think it was pretty neat to be an Uncle.
Well things are going great here. Now we are just trying to get back into the swing of things with school as well as a baby, and then in two weeks I will be starting back at work. Should be fun and interesting.
