1 Month Old & Wedding Update

Austin is 1 month!

My oh my how time flies.  2 days ago my precious little man turned 1 month old and it hit me that I only have 2 more weeks until I have to leave him and go to work *sniff*

(loves looking out the window!)


It is absolutely amazing to watch him learn and grow and change on a daily basis.  He is a champ at eating but unfortunately mommy doesnt make enough to satisfy him all the time so we have had to supplement (mostly at night).  I am getting my stock ready though and should be able to continue to pump when I head back to work so my mom can feed him during the day.
So my new monthy survey to keep up with Austins changes and accomplishments is below, enjoy!

Survey Says....


Age: 1 mo, 2 days

Height/Weight : not sure his appt is next week but he is up to 0-3 mo clothes and size 1 diapers so he has grown!

Dr Appts : next thursday 8/30

Changes : he now has little rolls and his hair has grown a bit since birth, he now has chubby cheeks and a double chin!

Sleeping: during the day he sleeps for about 2hours then wakes up, diaper change, eats and if he wants to stay awake he'll do tummy time, at night he is sleeping around 3-4 hours for his initial stretch then back to 2-3 as he does during the day

(one of his fav places to sleep)


Accomplishments : he has been able to really steady his head since birth but is almost to the point of doing it all on his own!  He also already rolled over from tummy to back and is smiling and making new noises

Eyes : getting lighter and bluer by the day! I think he's going to have my eyes as I can already see a ring of a different color forming around his pupil :)

So Austin is doing fabulous and like I said changing daily.  We have gone on several outing since his birth and I am so excited to say that he does fabulously out and about, we even nursed in public a couple times (with a cover) and he did great (as did mommy)!  Overall I have a pretty good baby, once he starts sleeping through the night and his gas is completely gone I think he'll be even more perfect than he already is!



Wedding Update:


So now lets move on to the Wedding!! If you haven't seen on Facebook we had to change the date yet again due to a large Marlin Tournament taking place the weekend we had initially booked.  Sadly because of the tournament and all the people coming to town for it the hotels we wanted to book would not let us block rooms and we didn't want to worry about any guests not being able to stay nearby. 

Our new date is May 4th, 2013 and will absolutely not be changing.  We have the venue ready to go, the hotel blocked, wedding planner and photographer all set for that date so there is no changing lol :).

Within the next month or so I will be doing my dress shopping and finally doing our engagement pics!  Be on the lookout soon for our Save the Dates and then invitations to follow with information to our wedding website! (can you tell I am excited)


 

Life in General

Overall things are going well in the Bahn/Brown household and we are adjusting to life with our new man.  Wedding planning with a newborn is stressful and I have to use any extra minutes I have while he is sleeping during the day to clean, do laundry, pay bills, and plan the wedding on top of making sure he doesnt wake up and maybe get a chance to shower/eat! 

Life as a mommy is wonderful and I wouldn't have it any other way!
