Smiley little guy!

Little Zander, is not so little anymore. He is really starting to let me say fill out. He is on the verge of having a beer belly or should I say a formula belly! He has started to smile and coo. So it has been fun to see finally some fun milestones. He loves laying underneath the playmat and he loves his vibrating chair. He sleeps in his crib now, so no more carseat in the crib. What a man! We are still going to the chiropractor but he has shown wonderful improvement he only has about three more adjustments.

I got rid of my maternity clothes this past weekend. I am very excited to be in normal clothes again, so much that I am back to being a shopaholic!

I am almost done with school for the semester so you probably won't see an update for a few weeks.
Here are two pictures from today, showing off his smile!

One month

It's hard to believe Zander is a month old. We are all adjusting well. He sleeps well at night, he is up every 2-3 hours and during the day he doesn't want to miss anything so he sleeps about 2-3 hours.

Zander and I are going to the chiropractor three times a week. He was getting a little fussy and with the delivery we had I thought it might help and it sure has! The doctor is working on his neck and tailbone area. The first visit Dr. Krantz held his head in his palm and gently massaged the top of his neck and you could see instant relief in Zander. He was crying and then as he massaged he stopped crying and you could see he was relaxed.

I sent a letter a few months ago to Coach Crean (IU basketball coach) and we received a letter back from Coach Crean. As you can imagine, I was pretty excited to see a letter from Bloomington, Indiana.

We got pictures taken of Zander a few weeks ago. Krista did such a great job we are having a hard time deciding on which ones to pick! Here is the website and login:

He is beginning to smile when we talk to him. Here is a picture. You can see he is definately growing!


Hope all is well with everyone!


Take care-

Two weeks old!

Zander is adjusting to life pretty well so far! (knock on wood) He had his two week checkup yesterday and he his tipping the scale at 8 lbs 5 ozs. His cone head has gone down so he is 20.5 inches tall. The doctor assured me he didn't shrink, so that's good. And the problem with his left arm - erb palsy is getting better. I may not have mentioned this but his nerves on his left side were stretched during delivery so his left arm was limp and he didn't really move it much. But now he is moving it just as much as his right and lifting it above his head. So we continue to do stretches and tummy time to strengthen his arm so he can one day be am IU basketball player. :-)


We finally got out of the house on Saturday and showed him off at two different parties. He did really well, so well that at one of the parties they were shooting off fireworks and Zander continued to sleep through them. Getting him use to noise - you know I am not a quiet person so I don't think it will take long for him to sleep through anything!


Last week we met with Krista and had his newborn pictures taken. I can't wait to see them, she had props and everything for him to lay in. Of course we took some nude, and you can just imagine what happened when we took his diaper off - yep, he marked his territory! Once I get the link to the pictures I will foward it on. Stay tuned!


Here is a family picture of us. Enjoy! Yes, I need to get some sun.

He is a genius already!

Zander is quite the little guy already! He is enjoying tummy time - moves his head from right to left. He is smiling but I think it is gas, but I will take it as he is smiling at me! :-)

Zander has had quite the week already and it's only Wednesday. He went on his first rode trip to Indiana on Monday to see his Great Grandparents and Tuesday evening we had newborn pictures taken, although it was too cloudy so we are going to try again on Friday.

Here are some updated pictures of the little guy as well as pictures of his cousins. My younger sister Kristen was here for the past week, so we attempted to take some pictures of Zander, Owen and Emily (my brother Kory's daughter). As you will notice, Zander was the well behaved one just sleeping on the boppy while Owen had enough towards the end and Emily just wanted to play basketball!
