Your blog is showing!


Maddox's Uncle Sven wants you to check out these blogs.




Check-up

Well, we're doing something right. In just two weeks, Maddox has gained 2lbs. and grown 2 inches! He is now in the 75th percentile for height, so hopefully he's not doomed to be short and stocky. Take care!

Week two

Well we are into a nice routine. He eats, he sleeps, and then he poops. He is a very content little man. He has been sleeping in his crib since day 1, wakes once in the middle of the night, and then again between 5 and 6. So for being two weeks old, he's doing great. His next check-up is Friday. I am excited to see how much he's grown, since he is already filling out clothes that he could not just weeks ago. He was 6 lbs 12 ozs when born, 6lbs 11ozs, an 20 inches long at his first Dr. appt, we'll have to see where he falls Friday.

homecoming

Allison and Maddox did so well the docs let them come home a day early (thursday). We found out he loves his carseat and riding in the car. I let him stear the car for a second, but he fell asleep. Maddox had his first pediatritian appointment today, he is already close to his birth weight.



And yes he is sporting a New Zealand All Blacks (rugby team) onezy.




Grandpa is the expert BURPER!!














Leah makes a great nanny, she puts the dog from peter pan to shame.

Hospital day 1







Well we survived the first night. I got to change his first diaper while Alley was laid up in bed. He might be little but man can he fill a diaper. Allison is doing great considering she just had surgery, she is walking around and hasn't even needed pain meds. Maddox had his circumcision today, just a little tylenol and he is handleing it like his mother. He's got a set of lungs on him!

Labor Update

Hello All,I know you are wondering what is going on. We have not forgotten to call or text. Allison has been having contractions since thrusday night, they increased in intensity and became 3 to 4 min apart, so we went to the hospital at 430AM friday expecting the big event, but she was still completely colsed so they sent us home with a pat on the back and a see you soon. Later on Friday we went to the doctor's office for an appointment (she was still closed) and they said to just wait it out and if nothing happens on its own we are to come in sunday night (after the giants win) to be induced early monday morning. So saturday night we walked around kop mall for a while and again the contractions became worse and closer, she was in hell all night and around 630AM today (sunday) we went back to the hospital. Unfortunatelly she was barely open at 1 cm but 80%thinned out, which is an improvment but still miles from where we thought she'd be and still technically NOT in Labor, she's considered in prodromal prelabor. This time the gave her a shot of morphine in the butt. She slept a little between contractions, but again they gave us the boot,So here we are now, she getting much needed rest. We love and appreciate all your thoughts and prayers, keep them coming. We will let everyone know when he decides to poke his little head out. My guess is he'll see his shadow and go back up for 6 more weeks. GO GIANTS!
