Hanukah and update
Well, another doctor’s appointment and Jake’s a healthy boy! He weighs 15 lbs and 6 ounces and is 25 inches long (100th percentile in both cases). His head measures 16 inches (50th percentile). Basically, he’s a 4 month old. Which is what people usually guess when they meet him. Doctor Robin was also impressed with his neck strength (can hold his head up without jiggling), leg strength (can support his weight for short periods), and his position when put on his tummy (almost crawling position and immediately lifts his head). Basically, he’s wonderful – which we knew.
He was a great boy yesterday at my swearing in ceremony. He’s so mellow but awake and cute to meet everyone. More and more smiles every day and he’s learning more and more how to work his jungle gym toy. Looking forward to his first Hanukkah with the family this weekend!

This is the latest picture of our darling boy. We went to Babies R Us yesterday and this was the only pose we got. It was just too much excitement for the guy. We will go back and do more another time.
We had another doctor's appointment today to be circumcised. Not a happy boy. But he's up to 10 pounds (not bad for originally having feeding issues!) and so much bigger every day.

4 hours!
Last night Jake went 4 hours between feedings! He also spent those 4 hours (well, 3 since 1 of them was technically during the last feeding) in his bassinet! Yay! What a big boy! We're so proud!
Looking forward to a big week this week. Grammy is helping out and we hope to be getting formal pictures done as well as making some rounds. Also (much to Jake's dismay although he doesn't know it yet) the c-i-r-c-u-m-c-i-s-i-o-n is Wednesday. Shhhh....

Welcome to Jake's Bar and Grill!
Welcome to Jake's Bar and Grill! Jacob Stanton ("Jake") joined our family on Septeber 28th at 4:41 p.m. after 24 hours of labor. He weighed 8 pounds and 1 oz and was 20 inches long. He is perfect and we're so glad he's here! And Mommy's SO happy to notbe pregnant any more! This blog will allow all of our friends to keep up with Jake as he grows. I will post updates and pictures as often as possible.
Speaking of updates, Jake now weighs 8# 8 oz as of him being 10 days old. Great progress since we had feeding problems at first. The doctors say he is strong and healthy and handsome (as if we didn't know that!) and he's doing wonderfully. He lost his umbilical stump on Grammy's birthday - October 8. He's a prodigy! Now if only we could get him to sleep in his bassinet instead of on Mommy's tummy...
