2 weeks!

Yesterday I turned 2 weeks old!  It's hard to believe 2 weeks have already passed by...but I heard Daddy say it feels like I've been here for months already! :)  (I'm sure it's just because I wake them up at night!) :)

I have gotten used to being swaddled.  I wasn't so fond of it when I was first born, but now I like it and it helps me to relax and sleep.  I enjoy eating--but have a lot of trouble with air in my tummy.   It is not fun at all.  Very uncomfortable.  Mommy has been giving me some sort of medicine after every time I eat now.  It seems to help the air go away faster...but not completely.  I still spit up here and there after each meal.

I eat about every 2 hours during the day. 

I eat about every 4 hours at night.  Last night was kind of a tough night, though.  I ate at midnight, finally fell asleep by 1:00.  Then I got up at 3:30 and was hungry.  I ate but couldn't fall asleep again until 4:45.  Then I woke up feeling very uncomfortable at 6:15.  Mommy picked me up, thinking I was going to eat again, but I burped twice and went right back to sleep!  It felt so good to get that air out.
I woke up for the day at 8:30--ready to eat.  Mommy had to go visiting teaching, so Kamryn and I stayed here with Daddy.  I tried to sleep, but was uncomfortable and restless...so I didn't sleep.  I ate again when Mommy got home (11:30) and then finally fell asleep for a nap at 12:30.  I slept till 2:30...but then was up again all afternoon!  I don't know what was wrong today---I just could not sleep!  Hopefully I'll be able to rest tonight.  If not, I'm sure that Mommy will say something to the Dr. at my 2 week appointment tomorrow morning!

Good night!

I'm here!

I was born on April 14, 2010.  I have brown hair (looks kinda blonde on top), blue eyes.  
Weighed 6 lbs. 11 oz. and 19 inches long. 
I have a dimple in my chin, a dimple on each cheek, and I was born with a very defined crease on my frontal skull.

The night before I was born, I was kicking and moving a lot!  I was so excited to come out!  It was getting very squishy in there!

Mommy only had to go through 5 hours of labor with me...but felt NOTHING because of the epidural!  She was so excited about it!

When I came out, I hardly cried.  I was so sleepy!  I fell right asleep again when they were done poking and prodding me. 


I didn't pick up on eating really quickly.  I was too tired to latch on "correctly".  But I'm getting the hang of it!  Mommy is SO happy to not be pregnant anymore--she's alright with working  with me at the eating  thing! :)

You have a name

Kyler Ryan Seamons

Your Daddy and I finally agreed and decided to call you Kyler. Daddy was having a hard time really committing, but he has decided that it will work and we love it! We can't wait to see the face that goes with it! See you in a couple of days! :)
