Belated 9 weeks

We had a busy weekend that I was late on the 9 week blog...Friday his 9 week birthday he had his 2 month dr appt....he had to get 3 shots and a oral vaccine...the dr appt took forever...literally waited 45 mins b/w seeing the dr and the nurse coming in to give the shots...luckily my little guy is an angel and was soooo good and took a nap while waiting...here is a pic of him at the drs
How handsome is he??? lol
Well he was doing good with the shots took a nap after eating when we got home and seemed like his usual self until he wasnt...now in regular baby terms Zander at his worse is another baby's good day...but he was a laughing and cooing then he just started crying...like he knew something wasnt right and he didnt know why....I felt so bad...I decided to give him a bath cause it was close to his normal time and he had calmed down and enjoyed his bath...as soon as I took him out the crying started again...it broke my heart...I threw a diaper on him and didnt have the heart to try to dress him and swaddled him in a blanket gave him some medicine and just cuddled him till the medicine kicked in...luckily by the morning he was all better and well rested...

Saturday was visiting day...he meet his other grandma...that was slightly awkward but went well...she was very happy to see him and he seemed to like them...they got him so cute outfits for christmas...after that we went out to see Brit, her parents Jack and Lucy, and Zanders dad...and yes you read that correctly....he met his father for a 2nd time in his life...and yes it was not at his own parents house...Zander and I went to his parents house ourselves while he was hunting at Brit's parents house...I'm still not sure if he knew ahead of time or not that Zander and I were going there...his mother made it seem like she hadn't told him but I'm pretty sure his brother would of told him regardless...

He seen Zander for a little bit and then went back to hunting...which I was thankful for cause it was just all awkward...I didnt know if he wanted to hold him or if he was afraid to ask or I was to hand him over...he held him for a bit but seemed like he just didnt know what to do...gosh we have this whole situation so messed up that I dont know how to make it better and like I've said before not sure I care too...I'm happily raising Zander on my own...

So on a brighter note here are so cute pics of my little man...
He's learning how to grab things...watch out hair

He was smiling when I went to snap it by the time it captured it he had a pout

8 weeks

My little one hit the 8 week mark today...in a few more days he'll officially be 2 months old...he also made it thru his first week of daycare...I think he had an easier time of it than I did...by the end of the week he seems like he acts like his usual self with them as he would for me...so I'm glad and they do seem to take very good care of him...

He was being a stinker and wouldn't stop a moving around hitting himself in the face to get a good pic of him...this was the best I could do

I figure I'll throw in one from yesterday that I just love

He just looks so cute cuddled in his boppy.  But look how big he is getting...makes so sad yet happy seeing him grow up...he slept thru the night for me last night too...he is just a little angel...now I am just waiting for him to roll over...I better not miss it and he does it at daycare cause that will break my heart...

Monday was hard for me...I cried most of the way to work...gave myself enough time to calm down so my eyes weren't completely red and puffy...I couldn't even look at his pictures at work without wanting to cry...luckily I had picked a day when most ppl weren't at work so talking about him was a minimum...I just felt like a horrible mom for having to leave him there...granted I'd be a far worse mother if I didn't have a job and no money to take care of him...and ppl say its harder to leave them at a daycare than with family or friends...I don't think that's true cause I'd feel just as horrible if not worse cause its still someone but me taking care of my baby...

Monday and Tuesday he looked so tired when I picked him up...which he didn't nap that well but by Weds he seemed to be getting the hang of it and Thurs and Fri seemed like his self when I picked him up...he hasn't given me any trouble at home and it doesn't seem like his patterns are getting messed up...and so far my fears of him ending up with a diaper rash from not being changed or left in dirty clothes have not happened...I get a paper with all his feedings, naps and diaper changes and I've already had to bring in new extra clothes cause he had went thru all his just as he would of at home...so those fears are thus far unfounded...alright I don't know what Im celebrating I should of been in bed already...night all
