Weekly Update!

It is killing me not having a computer at my house. I only get to use the Internet on Thursdays because it is family night at my mom's house. So I guess you will be getting weekly updates until I go back to work. Jameson is doing great! I am so full of love, anxiety, pride, and happiness. It is hard to describe. Anyway, he is perfect(you will hear me say that over and over again.) We went to the pediatrician this week and he is a healthy little man. He has gained a pound in 10 days! He now weighs 8 lbs. and 5 oz. That satisfied my fear that he wasn't eating enough. He also grew. He is 21 inches long now. I hope he is tall like his daddy so he won't have short man complex! :0 We go back in 2 weeks and I can't wait to see if he has gained more. I sure hope so. I am doing well. I miss being pregnant like crazy! I still catch myself rubbing my stomach and remembering that he is not in there anymore. Sometimes I will feel something in my stomach and I think, "Oh he is moving" and realize that he is not there. If I ever sit and think about it, I start to cry. That has been my biggest struggle I guess. I loved being pregnant and now that I am not, it depresses me. Don't get me wrong, I am so glad that Jameson is here, but it is like I am alone again. Something possesses your body for 9 months and then all of the sudden it is gone. You feel lonely. I have had many people tell me I am crazy! You can too. My recovery has been amazing. I expected to be sore and complaining for 6 weeks, but I don't even feel like I have had a baby. I am ready to start exercising! I fit into a pair of my jeans today and that made me very happy. I can also wear my wedding rings again. Things are falling into place. Still working on this feeding thing. I am going to have to introduce formula soon because I have a training in 3 weeks for work and he will start daycare in 4 weeks. Pray that he transitions ok and that his tummy will take the change. I have a few more pictures for you. Thanks for all the sweet comments. Keep praying and thinking about us! I still need help. Look how much he has changed in 2 weeks!

2 Weeks Old!

He is too cute!

No, you aren't crazy for missing the pregnancy...a lot of people feel that way. Just don't get too crazy and want another one baking too soon! =)

Know that my prayers are still with you guys. Enjoy all of the moments with him. It goes by so quickly.
