Nolan Grabs

I am soooo excited to announce another great milestone from Nolan!
A couple nights ago I gave him something to hold on to with his hand, he held it for a few moments...well minutes accually, then raised it to his mouth to eat!!!!
We were sooo amazed by this, we never knew we get to see our son do something like this.Looks like we have to buy him a rattle to play with! His development seems to amaze us each and everyday we have with our miracle boy Nolan! A.K.A (Nolie hehehe)
Sometimes when i rub his lotion on him after his bath he rolls himself to his side and with a little push he gets to his tummy! He is doing fantastic!

Nolan turns 4 months!

This morning as i opened my eyes to see sweet nolan staring at me cooing away, I was so happy to say happy 4 months Nolan and give him kiss and tell him how much everyone loves you! I just cant believe its been 4 months, these months have been a true gift, we know our Nolie!(his nick name) how he coos, when he's upset what he likes to calm him down, he knows out faces and reacts to everything! A pure miracle<3we pray for many more of these days with our sweet baby boy!

Tube Issues.

Last night till early this morning was very hard, we had some big troubles with nolan's tube going back in.Nathan is the one who usually inserts it in, and it kept comming out his mouth.Poor little guy was stressing out and couldnt calm down,(he hates getting his tube changed)So after 3 tries we decided it was time to call the nurse to come out and help us out!It was 12:30am by the time she arrived she tried about 4 times and with no luck she went to her car to get a stiffer tube as she thinks the tubes we have are to flimzy and keep curling in the back of his throat.With luck she got the new one in!!! it was a long and stressful night and nolan was very upset,My heart hurt watching him go through that knowing he was unconfortable, today is a better day and he's back to his happy go lucky self!

Nutrition appointment

Nolans appt. went great again! he's 8lbs 6.5oz! Nutritionist says he sure is a miracle gaining 17grams aday,she said a healthy baby gains 15-21grams so he's doing awesome,thanks to us!he's 20.5inches long,He's in the 50% for small babies!! yay go big boy, prove them all wrong.

Cardio appoinment

Nolan's appointment went great he weighs 8lbs 1.8oz! Doctor was very pleased and surprised like usual at how well he's doing!She prescribe a medication called Lasiks(i think thats how its spelled?)It's to help get rid of any excess fluid he may have ie. like to help with any congestion.It will make him pee more, to make sure his lungs wont fill up and get congested.

Thanksgiving With The Family

We had thanksgiving dinner with some of our family yesterday, accually me nathan and lexi had 2 dinners in one day, Nolan was very happy to see everyone,and everyone was thrilled to see him!Nolan recently started to reaching up at my face and smiling at the same time! he's soooo darn cute :) tomorrow is Nolans cardiology appointment and im feeling very nervous, i know hes doing great but im worried if they will find something new.Im going to try and keep my head high and think positive hopefully nolan will show those doctors all his new development!

14 weeks~

Nolan turned 14 weeks today! he's truely a blessing to us~
he had to get another needle today we break the immunizations up because we dont how he might react to having to many all at once.He accually cried this time i felt so sorry.But he's fine now he gained a tiny bit since yesterday! not much but still some! the nurse said he's growing fine like following his own curve, of course he is not on the accually line for babies his age, but all that matter is that he's growing and thriving!Love you sweet baby boy!
