3 weeks old!!

Dear Teagan:
I can't believe you are 3 weeks old today!! You're getting so big!! But, you can still fit into some newborn clothes, although when you stretch all the way out they seem to be a bit small! As much as I want you to stay little, I want you to get a little bit bigger so you can where all you're super cute clothes!

So you had your ultrasound on your hips done on Tuesday. You were such a good boy during it. And the lady that did your ultrasound did my ultrasound when I was pregnant for you. She even remembered me!! During the ultrasound I didn't think anything looked abnormal. She did both hips and to me it seemed like the one in question looked exactly the same! Well, sure enough your hips are normal! I just called your dr to check on the results! I'm so relieved because I looked up the brace you would have had to wear if there was a problem and it looks like it'd be very inconvenient to change you, and it'd take away from your cute clothes!
So your gas problem seemed to get increasingly worst, so I finally gave you gas drops. To me they seemed to make you more miserable and more gassy. So I sent dad to walmart after work yesterday to get some gripe water after I went to every store in gouverneur and couldn't find any. We gave you a dose after dad gave you your bottle because you had hiccups that were causing you to swallow air, and as soon as you swallowed the dose, your hiccups were gone. You didn't have gas all night! They are wonderful!
So since you were such a good baby last night we were able to put you in bed at 9 and dad and I went out and sat on the deck under the umbrella lights. I had some (more) wine and dad drank beer. I had been waiting to do that all summer. I couldn't wait to sit outside at night and have a drink with dad. But all summer it was so buggy, or by the time it got dark enough I was too tired and ready for bed, and of course I wasn't able to drink! I ended up having to bottle feed you all night because I drank a little too much wine. Whoops! I deserved it though!
Today it is super cold and just rainy & dreary out so we are sitting home and lounging all day! I'm going to make some homemade chicken noodle soup with homemade noodles. I haven't made it since probably last november! Dad will be so excited because it's one of his favorites!
Alrighty, time to get you fed and then start this soup!
I love you so much!
Love,
Mommy
