9 weeks

This was my first week back to work.  I thought it would be more difficult than it has been.  I did shed a few tears after dropping Jojo off at the babysitters.  But I feel he is in great hands and he seems to be the same happy and calm baby boy.  Brittany and her daughters adore Jojo.  Caroline reads to him  in the morning before school and Maddison plays with him and reads to him in the afternoon.  He gets lots of play time and tummy time and fresh air with Brittany.  I am so thankful to have found such a great babysitter for Jojo.   Mike was nice enough to let me leave early the first couple days.  Wednesday he had his 2 month check up.  He is now weighing 10lbs 4 oz and is 23.5" long.  Doctor said his weight was ok as long as he is gaining and not loosing.  I don't need to give him formula.  What a relief for momma.  I was really worried about that.  Jojo also got 4 shots and had to drink a vaccine.  He cry so hard but for only a minute.  He is a tough little fella.  I don't have very many pictures to post of him this week.  But here are a couple.

2 months old

Jojo turned 2 months old last Thursday.  It was a very exciting day.  We woke up to multiple tornado warnings and flood warnings.  We were to have a play date as well.  I wasn't sure if we were going to be able to have it with the crazy weather but we did.  Before our company came I took Jojo's 2 month pictures.  Here they are.

Once the weather calmed down our friend Karen came to our house for Jojo and Juliana's very first play date.  Juliana was 3 weeks old in these pictures.  It was a very uneventful play date being they are so little.  They both slept.  It was nice though to have another adult to talk with throughout the day. It was nice having Karen, Hope, and Juliana visit us for the afternoon.  Here are a few pictures of Jojo and Juliana.  I hope you enjoy these two cuties.

I had a very talented photographer come take newborn pics of Jojo.  I have finally been able to load them on my computer.  Here are o few of my favorites. 

Happy Easter!

Jojo celebrated his first Easter on Sunday.  We started our day by going to church with granny.  Afterward we had dinner with Jason's family at Granma Crowe's.  Jojo received several Easter presents.  Grandma Malone bought him 2 toys and and outfit, Mimi bought him diapers, wipes, and 2 outfits, and Tracy bought him a Steeler gift set.  Mommy isn't too sure about that one.  LOL!  The Easter bunny brought Jojo his very first basket.  He got some new binkers, an outfit, 2 books and Fisher Price lullaby seahorse.  I think he faired pretty well for his first Easter.

7 weeks

Last week Jojo was 7 weeks old.  We spent the week "back home".  It was nice to be around people all day and have a little help with things.  I enjoyed spending time with my gran and seeing my family and friends everyday.  We did a lot of running around and Jojo met alot of new people.   Jojo is now smiling more socially and staring to coo.  He is such a joy to me.  I love him more than words can express. 

Here are a couple of updated pictures for the week.
