Jackson was 3 weeks old on December 3rd. He had a very busy weekend. On Friday, we picked out his first Christmas tree up at the farmer's market. The trees are from Boone, NC and the men that run and own the business could not be nicer. The only problem is their measuring skills. Every year we have gotten a 7-8 foot tree from them we have had to take at least a foot off the bottom, and we have 9 foot ceilings. This year I saved the branches from the bottom and mom helped be make 4 wreaths and decorate the back patio lights and fireplace.
On Sunday, we went to the Whitewater Center and Dad took photos for our Christmas card. It was 45 degrees F so we did not stay long but the photos turned out cute.
Nanna and Papw love Jackson and we have loved having them here to help us. They took the 11 PM feeding so the we could go to bed. (We were exhausted from a week of no sleep.) On Sunday night, Jackson slept for 2.5 hours between every feeding. We had to wake him up to let him eat. No such luck on Monday night though.
Jackson's second doctor's appointment was on Monday, Dec. 7th. He weighed 6 lbs and 8.5 ounces. The doctor says he is very healthy. We go back on Christmas Eve for his one month checkup and next respiratory virus vaccination.
