First shots

So let's recap....

At birth, Warren was 8lb 2oz and 20.75 inches long
At his two week appointment, Warren was 9lb 3oz and 21 inches long
At his six week appointment, Warren was 12lb 2 oz and 23.75 inches long

His pediatrician (such a wonderful woman) said that he was in the 75th percentile for his weight and 90th percentile for his height. My mom kept saying how long he had gotten but I guess I did not really notice. He does have a chest x-ray as well as a scan to see the development of his trachea/larynx because of his breathing. They also need to measure his oxygen saturation; she said that he would not be growing as wonderfully as he has been if he had issues with oxygen saturation but she is doing so for safe measure. I know this is something they did when he was in NICU so I am not too worried but it does suck because he is my baby boy :/

Now for pictures...

We went to the Citadel outlets and I saw this hat at The Children's Place and could not resist. His Nana is holding him.



Warren's first selfie.



This is him hours after his first shots. At present he is not a happy camper and just wants to sleep or be held. Poor guy, he did really well during his exam.



He has been smiling for about a week but this was the first time I could actually capture it on camera.



This one, he was off to Nana's house while Ray and me went to dinner and a movie.

They see me rollin', they hatin'....

A couple of days ago, Warren was doing tummy time on his floor mat. Neither Ray or myself were paying attention to what he was doing but when I looked at him, he was on his back. I asked Ray did he do it or did Warren roll himself over; Ray said the baby did it. We put him on the couch to see if it whether or not it was a fluke; it was not, the boy rolled over a couple more time after that. So there you have it, at one month old he rolled himself from his stomach to his back. The link to the video is below, the video was too big for me to get it off of my phone :/

The photo below is one of my favorites from when he was about 2 weeks old.



This is him napping. This is his thing. He LOVES sleeping with his arms up next to head. If his arms are free, they always find their way up.


His signature face he makes when he is stretching out while sleeping. Notice the arm is up.

I have never in my life seen a baby that gets as upset as he does when you try to burp him in the middle of feedings. He has a combination of moves that includes throwing his weight back, stretching his legs, crying, whining, and turning his head so that you will resume feeding him. He gets so angry, but in this shot, he calmed down long enough to give Ray this dirty look.


Another one of my current favorites, Warren during tummy time. He will pick and hold himself up in this position for an extended amount of time. My boy is advanced for his age ;)


You get bonus points if you can tell me what he is doing while making this face.
