May 1: "Oh, great. There IS such thing as post-partum carpal tunnel syndrome -- mostly in nursing mothers. Years of typing and playing handbells didn't cause it. . . my beautiful baby caused it (indirectly) instead!"
April 30: "Looking forward to B's day off, so maybe he can be up for hours in the early morning with the baby. 4.5 hours of sleep total for me last night. What happened to that couple of weeks of several more hours of sleep per night??"
April 29: " ahhh, he's asleep. Off to bed!"
April 29: "Why are our early morning feeding/changing sessions lasting over an hour the last few days? He keeps going (so multiple diaper changes in a very short time), and also eating very, very slowly - and yet he acts famished. Eating slowly and savoring?"
April 27: "We have been loaned a cradle swing. Part off it is being washed right now, so Nick hasn't tried it yet . . . and this this is the first afternoon in a few weeks that Nick went to sleep for an afternoon nap without going on a long walk (and not being moved at all). Go figure."
April 26: "Nick is six weeks old, and for the first time, he is upstairs in bed and I am downstairs doing a few things before I head to bed. I am anxious and have the movement/sound monitor on. So far, he's fine. Usually, so far, if I am downstairs he is downstairs, etc, so this is different."
April 26: "Nick is starting to scootch himself to reach things, while on his back. . . and still doesn't like tummy time."
April 24: " Nick seems to like showers better than baths - today, anyway."
April 21: "Nick gained another 11 oz in the last week. . . he is almost 3 lbs over birth weight at five weeks and 1 day old. Is this too much?"
April 19: " Insatiable, insatiable baby! He's been eating for three out of the last four hours. . . ounces and ounces. . . what to do?"
April 19: " Baby Status Update #17: Nick nearly slept through his first visit to Sabino Canyon!"
April 19: "I had eight entire hours of sleep overnight (although they weren't quite contiguous) -- the baby slept from 8:30 pm to 6:30 am, only getting up once to eat an enormous amount!"
April 16: "Nick is one month old already!"
April 15: "Baby has been awake and crying for hours. We are taking a nice long walk since he wants to move. He is almost napping. Oops. Stopped moving for too long."
April 14: " Baby Status Update #16: Nick has gained another pound in the last week. . . so he's gained two pounds since two weeks ago! Wow."
April 13: "Baby Status Update #15: Nick is currently loving the vibrating bouncer (and is looking at the dangling animals) - this is the first time in over two hours that I have been able to put him down. Last night, he decided he did not want to be swaddled, and would not go to sleep until I unswaddled him."
April 12: " Gassy, crying baby. Maybe mommy shouldn't eat spicy food. . ."
April 10: "Baby Status Update #14: Nick just Skyped with his Grandma and Grandpa Jaberg. . . well, on our end."
April 7: "Baby Status Update #13: Nick has gained another 4.5 oz in two days, which puts him at a weight gain of an entire pound in one week!"
April 6: "A little gentleman lying in my lap is still awake at 11 pm. Last night was an aberration (asleep at 10:30 pm) apparently."
April 5: "Baby Status Update #12: Nick went to his first handbell rehearsal (well, since he was born - he grew in his mom hearing bells up to the week before he was born) tonight - and slept peacefully right through it! He also "held" his first bells. . . a picture will be posted soon."
April 5: "Baby Status Update #11: Nick now weighs 8lbs, 6 oz!!"
April 4: "Baby status update #10: Nick seems to be saying, "Forget these pastels - give me this afghan instead, that has the dark blue, purple and white stripes.""
April 4: "Baby status update #9: It is 9 pm, so Nick is awake now. He is looking at me with his eyes that look like mine, his grandpa's and his great-grandpa's. And he just ate an incredible amount. And we didn't feel the earthquake today."
April 3: "A very awake, insatiable baby at 11:15 pm. A very tired mommy. We probably won't go to the 6 am sunrise service tomorrow."
March 30: "Baby Status Update #8(??): Our little Nick baby is presently milk-drunk. ♥ "
March 30: "Delighting in the baby sleeping on my lap!"
March 29: "just took Nick out in public in the snugli carrier we were given. He was fine in it but was mistaken for a girl because of the bit of pink decor on it."
March 28: "Baby Status Update #7: It seemed like Nick was starting to work out the night and day thing. . . except now he's awake at almost three am instead of earlier in the night. Mommy's tried singing to him and everything. . . but he seems perfectly happy being awake (but Mommy has to hold him.)"
March 26: "Baby Status Update #6: Nick has gained 6 ounces in four days!"
March 24: "Baby Update Status #5: Nick is hearing in the background, Tales of Hoffman (opera) on PBS."
March 23: "Baby Update Status #4: Nick went on his first walk today in his stroller -- to the mailbox!"
March 22: "Baby status update #3: Nick was up from 8 pm to 3:30 am last night and went through 10+ diaper changes. He wanted to eat continuously and wet himself completely nearly every fifteen minutes. Normal?"
March 22: "Baby status update #2: We created a Mii for Nick, and weighed him using Baby Stats on the Wii Fit. According to this, he has gained a few ounces back since we left the hospital. Yay!"
March 21: "Baby status update #1: In the last 24 hours, he managed to fill his entire hamper completely. The washer is running."
