My Little Piggie

6 weeks old today! 6 weeks...he is growing up so quick, LOL! Went to my New Mom's Group yesterday and weighed little man *drum roll please*... 9 lbs 10 oz! That is a 2.2 lb gain since birth. Today mom and I "measured" him and got 24". He is getting so BIG.

Things are getting better on the fussy front. He has maybe 2 good meltdowns a day and they are pretty consistent in time frame. Nice thing he doesn't scream when changing his diaper but he doesn't like to be wet and awake all at the same time.

Got my work schedule for my new job and finished up loose ends at MGH. I'm really going to miss the girls there but I need to make this change for my family and for my stress. Hopefully being closer to home will help decrease my stress a bit. I can't believe I go back to work on September 12th. This is the longest I have not worked since I was about 13. Working is what I know. I give it to stay at home moms though. I thought my nursing job was stressful but as much as I love hugging and cuddling and watching him grow I miss taking care of people. I'm fortunate that I get the best of both worlds because I don't have to work 5 days a week only 3.

We picked a day care center which was such a big step. I would love for mom to be a live in grandma but that's not realistic. The nice thing is this daycare is run by a mother and daughter and the mother runs the infant room. Its very homey for a day care. As long as he is happy there and stays healthy that's all I can ask for. Plus it will hopefully help us stay on a schedule.

Cam started Jr. High this week. Crazy to think that when we are doing Kindergarten round up for Jackson we will also be planning a graduation party for Cam.

Hoping to get some family pics soon. Rich has been doing freelance graphic work for a local photographer and I'm hoping to have him do so family pics. Plus my friend Jenn is home from Arizona so between the two I'm sure we will get something. Its kinda hard for Rich and I to take our own lol.

More Soon!
