Lazy, Lazy Day
The week has drug on quite a bit, and its definately had its ups and downs. But now I have a moment to breathe today, so here I am. Time for an update.
It has been an eventful week in the life of my little Landon. We discovered on Sunday that he seems to be cutting his first tooth. Already! He's only 11 weeks old! Poor guy, it just bugs the crap out of him. So he hasn't been all that happy this week. But still, he manages to get out a few smiles for me throughout the day. Being the little chunk that he is, its been increasingly hard for me to keep up with nursing him. So, as of Monday, he has been successfully switched from only breastmilk to half breastmilk, half formula. I wasn't planning on having to put him on formula so soon, but it makes life that much easier and more manageable. Now, I can pump and have plenty of bottles ready for him for the day, and it's such a relief for me. Maybe a little selfish, but he's such a chunk! He's eating anywhere from 6oz. to 7.5oz at any given time!
Also, as of last night, Landon is officially sleeping in his own room! He's been in the pack-and-play next to my bed since he came home. He's been such a good sleeper the entire time, so I guess its been more me keeping him there than anything. The last few weeks hes been only waking up between 5am and 6am to eat, then again between 8 and 9, and hes up for the day. Which works out wonderfully for me! So last night, I decided it was time for his own bed. It took a little longer than normal to put him down, but I don't think he was feeling well. Anyways, he was asleep by 11ish, with his monitor on and everything. And slept great all night! Me, on the other hand, I slept quite lightly. Nate had to laugh at me when we were falling asleep. I told him I missed my baby and wanted him next to me again. But I know, its about time he gets to sleep in his own bed. When he finally woke up this morning, at about 8:15, I heard him on the monitor just laying in his bed, laughing and talking to himself and his toys. I just layed in bed listening to him for a good half hour before I just had to get up and play with him! He's such a good boy, I'm so proud of him!
He's napping now, but I suppose I should go do something with myself today. We get to go out with some good friends tonight. I am so excited to finally see everyone again. I feel like I've barely seen anyone in many many months. So its about time! And, of course, its so great to introduce everyone to my baby boy!

Lets give this a try...
So I've never done this before. But I feel like i need something new to fill my days. So why not blog, right? It can't be that hard... I hope.
A little about me, shall we?
I'm 20 years old, and engaged to a wonderful man, Nathan, or Nate. We have a son who is almost 3 months old, named Landon James. He is the best thing to ever happen to us. We're still living at home, with my family. Time to save up some money and get some school out of the way before we take the next step. And even though its difficult sometimes, we make the best of it. I have wonderful parents who are super supportive of us. My brother, Ryan, is 25, and my sister, Jennifer, is 16. They're both very interesting people, thats for sure. We've gotten so much closer in the last few years though, which is so great. Nate's got a bigger family than me, and they're such great people and have really welcomed me into their family. He's got three older sisters, Breecia, Sydney, and Paige, and a younger brother, Taylor. They're all tons of fun to be around, and super sweet.
And thats about it, as far as I can think right now. So, a pretty boring first post, hopefully we will get more interesting as I try to find my little niche to continue to write about. I have a feeling it will be more about my son, and documenting his growth. Its so exciting to watch him grow. Even at only 11 weeks old, hes so wide awake and alert all the time, hes GREAT at holding his head up and watching things, he loves to watch everyone move around the room. We got him a little iPod with music on it for him (a gift from my mom) and its set up on speakers in his room. Boy, does he love that thing! His music comes on and his face lights up and he relaxes. Its so adorable! He's been extra drooly lately, and has started chewing on his hand all the time, and today he was very fussy. So I took a look in his mouth, and I'm pretty sure I saw a small white tooth underneath his little gums on the bottom! Already! Ohhh Boy, this will be an interesting ride...
