I Did It!

Mommy and Daddy took me back to Dr. Pease today because she wanted to make sure I got up over my birth weight. I was 3 oz shy at my two week well visit ... so it was my mission to bulk up! =D

Survey says: 9 lbs 7 oz! Yay!! Mommy's milk has been doing a great job making me grow big and strong ... so don't let her try to tell you otherwise!

Tomorrow I'm three weeks old! How time flies! Soon I'll be a whole month old! Wow!

Photo Shoot!

Well ... a little one. Mommy didn't get nearly all the pictures she wanted, 1. because I got fussy and 2. because Daddy wasn't prepared for his pictures. But they got some good ones anyway! Here they are!

Two Week Well Visit

I'm two weeks old today and Mommy and Daddy took me to see Dr. Pease again so she could check how well I'm growing! After visiting her last week, she was concerned about my weight gain, but we proved I was getting enough to eat from Mommy alone.

At this check-up, my weight is now 9 lbs 2 oz ... still not quite my birth weight, so Dr. Pease wants to see me back next Thursday to make sure I've gotten over my birth weight. But my brain must be growing, 'cause my head is 2cm bigger, and I'm also an inch longer -- 22.25 inches!

Mommy plans on doing my photo shoot soon. We'll see how cooperative I am for that!!

More Pictures!

Mommy got out the camera yesterday and today and snapped a few pictures. She has a few videos too which she'll post tomorrow ... I'm being kind of fussy and I don't want her staying on too long right now!

Me and Thumper ('cause Mommy says I'm quite the kicker!)

A Couple Pictures

Here's a few pictures to help ease your curiosity! Mommy and Daddy will post more in a few days, as well as tell the story of my arrival into the world, once we all get settled here at home!

I am so happy to finally meet them and look forward to all the years I get to spend growing up with them as my parents!

It's Me!! Jaiden Thomas Conkey

Me and Daddy

I'm Here!

Well, I have finally made my appearance into the world. Everyone thought I wasn't coming out. I gave Mommy a run for her money. We went into the hospital last night for Mommy to be induced. I finally decided to make my arrival at 7:08 p.m. C.S.T. I weigh 9 pounds 4.8 ounces and I am 21 1/4 inches long. I have a good amount of black hair and my eyes are dark brown. Mommy and Daddy are so happy that I am finally here. So is Grams and Pop Pop and Great Gammy. As soon as we get home from the hospital and Mommy has some time, we'll get some pictures of me for all to see. I think I'm going to take a snooze now. It's been a long night and day for me, and Mommy and Daddy, too!

Eviction Notice

Yesterday Mommy, Daddy, and Dr. Gina talked about having me evicted (inducing labor). I really do want to meet everyone, but darnit, it's just so comfy in here (and really cold out there)!!

My eviction is set to start Thursday night at 8 PM. Mommy and Daddy are going to head to the hospital and get settled in their room, and the nurses are going to give Mommy a pill that will try to kick me out! How rude! Hehe.

But, maybe I'll be like my cousin Thomas. Aunt Dawn had an eviction notice set for him, but he told her "no", and started the process on his own earlier in the morning. Maybe I'll tell Mommy the same thing and come earlier! Guess only time will tell...

Either way, I guess you'll all finally get to meet lil ol me by Friday!!
