Way to Grow, Mikey!

mikey had his recheck today! he's up to 7lb 12oz!!!!!!! and his billi is down to 7!! finally we are seeing some major progress! we go back in 3 weeks.

it's hard to believe he'll be 4 weeks this tuesday. man the days have just flown by! of course i knew they would, look at neal, he's NINE already.

we had our first rough night last night, and it was on the low end of rough. he just seemed to have a little belly ache or something and woke more often, but he was easily soothed by nursing. or just snuggling.

i'm still having issues with low milk so i picked up a slew of herbs today at my favorite herb shop. it was $50 for what she set me up with but if it works it'll be soooooo worth it.
i also SCORED today at a church consignment sale. i got a medela pump in style for $20!!!!!!!! i was so freakin' stoked about this find. and it works great! i had all the personal parts b/c i had rented that other pump earlier on, so i am set! boy am i excited.

oh and i have to brag about my neal-bean! he auditioned for the chorus this past saturday. they only accepted 25 students from the 4th and 5th grades. we got his letter on thursday and i don't know who squealed louder, me or him. i was sooooooo afraid i was going to have to let him down gently. i kept reminding him that it was ok not to make it b/c there were so many trying out and only so few spots. so when i saw he made it i was elated!

ok here's two new pics of my sweet baby boy, wide eyed and semi-smiling!
