3.1 weeks

Nathan was 3 weeks old yesterday.  His reflux is *better and he seems to be getting the hang of burping.  He did have a major throw up last night right before going to bed.  It was EVERYWHERE.  He looked like a fountain, with milk coming from all parts of his face.  He did that twice, one right after the other.  But in good news, that was the first time he did that in like 2 or 3 days.  So that was good.  He hasn't had any spits up today except for a wet burp, which is normal for any baby.  He is trying to get more alert.  He actually stayed awake most of this morning.  He only took a cat nap while we were eating breakfast.  He did finally give it up around 11am and I held him long enough for his to doze off and then I put him in his cradle.  So far he is still there, amazingly!  AND as an added bonus, Jon Kent and Zoey both went down for a nap about 30 minutes ago as well.  So they are all 3 down at the same time.  Woohoo!!

****Updated an hour later****

In other news, May is coming up in a few short days.  It's only the greatest month in the year!  For some reason, May is the start of our busy months.  This month is proving to be no different.  Nathan has his one month check-up on the 5th, then Mother's Day is the 11th, my birthday is the 13th, Kent's consult for his vasectomy is the 14th and then his surgery is the 23rd.  I'm sure there will be other things thrown in there as well.  Then it will be the start of summer and that will sure to be a busy time for us all.  I'm looking forward to it though.. getting busy and all.  We'll be able to get out and play and not be stuck indoors. 

Well, I need to go.  Nathan has already woken up and ate and is now back asleep.  Zoey has woken up and we cuddled for a bit and now she is playing.  Jon Kent is still snoozing, so once hegets up we will eat lunch.  So, I need to get going.  I hope yall enjoyed the pictures!

OH, almost forgot to add.. Sunday was Nathan's first day at church.  As you can see in his first two pictures.. he was all dressed and ready to go.  He slept through most of it but he was ohh'd and ahh'd over and was a big hit!
