Jordan is 6 weeks old today!

Jordan is 6 weeks old today! We measured him this weekend and he has grown 4 inches-he is 21.5 inches long. He is growing so fast! Our little preemie is fitting into his newborn outfits now.
He sucked his thumb for a little bit too, it was cute!
He also slept in his crib last night-BONUS! Hopefully he will continue to sleep there...we shall see...

I will be way bigger than you soon Mr. Teddy, watch out!

Black Friday extravaganza!!

My mom and dad decided to take me out on my first shopping experience on black friday..of all days. We bought so much stuff that it wore me out! I also went out to lunch for the first time at macaroni grill. They did not have what i wanted on the menu so I had to wait until we got home to eat. We rested and then went out shopping again!










After that, I asked to be put into my jammies and wanted to take a nap. I didn't nap for long though, I was so excited for santa to come that I decided to be a little monster! My big sis Shaddow is so excited too, she decided to start "Operation Santa" and was looking for her gifts. She came up empty though and did not find anything.
I had a really fun day!

Jordan's first Thanksgiving!

Jordan celebrated his first Thanksgiving!
It was snowing outside so Shaddow wanted to go out to play. Too bad we didn't get more snow than this! She had fun anyway.

Jordan's uncle Ryan and aunt becky hosted Thanksgiving this year and everything was fantastic! We are stuffed and cannot possibly think of food for at least 10 more minutes...
Thank you for the fabulous meal and great company!

We hope that everyone had a safe and happy Thanksgiving weekend!

Mommy?

Hi mommy! Er..wait...you sure look like my mommy!
Jordan loves to snuggle with his auntie Meggan!

Jordan decided that he wanted to feed himself this weekend. It is nice of him to help us out! Maybe now we can get some sleep...

I was supposed to arrive today, not October 15th!

Today is the day I was supposed to arrive into this world. I am glad that I decided to come early! Otherwise, I would not have been able to take naps with my dad as many times as I have. I love you daddy!

Jordan is 1 month old today!

I am 1 month old today! I was too excited to sleep last night, I just wanted to celebrate. Party in my crib, B.Y.O.B(ottle)!!


Today I found out that I weigh 7lbs and am about 19.25 inches long and I am not even supposed to be here yet. Right before I went on the scale, I paged "Dr. Brown" and my mom said it was stinky. oops!
I have had a great first month. I have been babysat by my auntie Meggan, my grampyo and gramamia Herrmann and gramma Harrington. I have met lots of my parents friends and can't wait to meet more of them! I like when they hold me. I think my mom would like it if they visited from midnight to 6 am though...I am always wide awake then, so if you want to visit, let me know!



My auntie Meggan gave me my first pillsbury doughboy. When I push on his belly, he giggles! I look big next to him!


Hey, who are you? You are making me look tiny!

I just love the balloons that I got on my birthday in the hospital. They are still up in the air and I like to look at them.

Jordan is 3 weeks old today!

Jordan had a big day today. After he almost rolled over for the first time, we found out he has gained over a pound (6 lbs 3 oz) in the week he has been home and has grown an inch and a half since his birthday! Our lil oinker, we love you!

Hanging out with my parents

I like to watch football with my dad!

I had my first bath at home and I hated every minute of it except for when mom snuggled me afterwards.

My big sister Shaddow is checking me out while i play in my gym. She does not know what to think at this point...

Here's Jordan cooking a little longer the second time around at the hospital.

Mom's favorite picture
After 2 days in the hospital, I was released and sent home! 2 days later, mom and dad had to bring me back to the hospital because I was not ready to live on my own yet. I couldn't hold my body temperature and I wasn't sure how to eat-I got down to 4 lbs 8 oz. I scared my parents because I had to have a lot of blood tests done and a spinal tap to test for infections. All of the tests came back negative-thank goodness. I had to stay for a week in the special care nursery and marinate in the incubater! Iliked it in there, it was nice and toasty but I missed my mom and dad and my big sister shaddow. I am happy to be home now and enjoy staying up all night long!

He's Arrived

Almost five weeks early. Thank goodness both mom and dad were not traveling!
