Week 3

Maddox had a very busy week this week. For starters, his cord finally fell off which meant that we could finally give him a real bath. He was not liking his sponge baths...too cold for him I guess. He seemed to really like his bath, he was very pleasant and curious. I loved washing what little hair he has. It smells so good I could just eat him. He hated coming out of the bath...even though I was standing by with a big hooded towel to keep him nice and warm he screamed and shivered for at least 3 mins before pooping right in the clean towel and all over his clean butt!
I took Maddox to work this week so everyone could finally meet him. I think it wore him out, we were there for over 3 hours and at least 25 people held him. He is not used to staying awake for that long. Everyone just loved him and it was really good to see them. It is crazy how much you miss people, but considering that I usually spend everyday, all day with my co-workers I guess its normal. We also started walking with Jaime and Sam in the park this week. Maddox slept the entire time but I am hoping he eventually enjoys it. I love to get out and chat about new "mommy stuff" with Jaime plus the exercise is great for both of us. Sam is only 3 weeks older than Maddox so we have a lot to talk about and a lot to learn from each other.

Maddox had a visit from another future playmate, Brycen Lally. Brycen is about 1 month older than Maddox, he pretty much slept through the entire play date again but someday I am sure they will have lots of fun together.

Maddox grew out of one of his newborn sleepers this week. Still plenty of room around but no more room length wise. He is still wearing almost all newborn or 0-3 months items but he is having trouble stretching out his legs in some of the sleepers with the built in feet. It is sooo cute. Our life is pretty simple right now, Maddox and I hang out all day while he pretty much just eats and sleeps and we wait for Daddy to come home. He stops in everyday at lunch so I try to keep Maddox awake so he can have a quick visit and then we usually spend the evenings watching the Reds on TV. We go to the Beaumonts every Tuesday night for family night just like always and we try to spend lots of family time together on the weekends, the weather has been beautiful but Maddox won't open his eyes outside if the sun is shining just yet.
