Jacks' first doctors appointment


Travis and I took Jack here to see Dr. Ramos yesterday for his first doctors appointment. It went well!! Jack didn't get any shots, yet. He was just weighed, and measured and looked over.

When Jack was born he weighed 6 lbs 6 oz. When we were discharged from the hospital Jack weighed 6 lbs 1 oz, yesterday at the doctors office he weighed 6 lbs 13 oz!!! This kid is a growin!!!

He's due to get a shot at his next appointment though :( not looking forward to that but I guess he needs it. Hep B vaccination....

Dr Ramos, is a firm believer of all things natural, he's the type to tell you to put a couple drops of breast milk in a ear to treat ear infection.....He's a big supporter of breast feeding, he's a big non-supporter of using lotions and such to treat dry skin....Anyway you get the drift.....He's a pretty neat doctor though.

Anyway, Jack is doing quite well. His hearing will be tested in a few months but we can tell he hears things, he jumps when Harriet barks or someone sneezes. No worries there. We aren't worried about his heart either, he's just a very laid back kid. There's no need to worry about his appetite either as he eats when he's not sleeping, so he gets all he needs...Sometimes more than that and ends up throwing up some LOL Crazy kid!

OK so that's all for now, Jack and I are off to the post office to pick up his first package!!! He's so excited he can't wake up!


I took that picture while both my boys were sleeping. I'm so lucky!! They are both so wonderful!!!
