Cereal & Sunday Afternoon

Here is Tyler with his first few tries at cereal. He really does like it.

Here Tyler is after church this morning. I put him down next to Jeremy and went to check on laundry. This is what I came back and found:

Happy 3 Month Birthday!

Yep! You read that right! Tyler is 3 months old today. He is becoming more of a little boy each day. A few milestones he has reached this month are...drinking 30 ounces of formula a day, eating cereal and applesauce with a spoon, holding his head up for a while (which happened in the past few days), and mastering the art of pushing his pacifier back in his mouth. Every day he becomes more and more alert. He is also growing by leaps and bounds. I will weigh him and get his length over the weekend.

Below are some pictures from Valentine's weekend when Wendy's parents were in town.

Also wearing my shades for the first time.

Another Day in the Life of Tyler

Above you can see him from bed time to morning. There are a few shots of his belly and you can barely make out his scar from surgery. One on each side of his tummy and another in the belly button.

Tyler is Recovering

For those of you who do know, Tyler had to have surgery on Tuesday. The quick version is...the doctors found out that he had pyloris stenosis. Basically his pyloric muscle in his stomach wasn't letting food pass into his intestines. It was a one time fix it with surgery and he is doing much better. So by this weekend he should be recovered completely.

Jeremy and I appreciate everyone's prayers on Tyler's behalf. We are truly blessed and grateful to have such wonderful friends and family. I will post some more pictures this weekend.

Cold Day & 2 month checkup

Tyler went for his 2 month checkup yesterday. I can't believe my baby is 2 months old already. Time sure is flying by. He now weighs 11 lbs 7 oz and is 24 3/4" long. He is momma's big boy! We took a few pictures that morning before he went. Check out his many facial expressions.

Doesn't my monkey look cute?

As you know it has been freezing out lately. Well during Christmas, Tyler received a car seat blanket and he has gotten plenty of use out of it.

finally more pics

Please know that just as I start this post Tyler spits up again and makes me change him into his 3rd outfit of the day. As for an update, as of Monday week, Tyler weighed 11lbs 6 oz and was 24" long. He is just a growing.

Enjoy the more recent pictures.

Apologies

My apologies for not posting more. Right after Christmas, I got sick and it started a domino affect. We are all just now getting back healthy. And during that time we are changing internet providers at our house and we still don't have it connected. We should have it back up and going by this weekend, when I can post more pictures. Until then, you will have to still look at older pictures. Sorry! :-(

Merry Christmas

Smile & Christmas Outfit

Yes, I am sleeping still and yawning!

Reindeer Booty

My first smile caught on camera! Mommy was making me laugh!

And I am back to yawning!

Hmmm...I think I like my picture being taken.

Past Few Days

I have been taking random snapshots lately of Tyler. So here they are. We are doing better on the new formula and are going 5-6 hours in between the night feedings. I am loving it. I am hoping to get him to sleep in his bed during the night soon.

After his photo shoot...he was tired!


During the Iron Bowl...it was boring this year for Auburn!

2 week check up & 1 tired Mom

Well, yesterday was the 2 week well baby checkup at the doctor's office. Everything went fairly well. Tyler hasn't gotten any longer...still at 22 inches, but has gained weight...now coming in at 9 lbs. He has been having a lot of problems with gas and the doctor told us to try another formula (a soy one). That has been a disaster!

Last night he slept maybe 4 hours and has had only a few hours of sleep since then. His gas is much worse and so I called the pediatrician this morning. We are going to try another formula (Enfamil Gentlease) tonight, since that soy one made him immediately worse. So needless to say, I (Wendy) have had minimal sleep. Any suggestions are welcome at this point. Mylicon only goes so far.

But here are a few pics over the past days. Enjoy!

Merry Christmas Early

Tyler's First Few Days

Sorry it has taken us so long to get pictures up. We have had major internet issues at the hospital and then caught up on sleep here at the house yesterday and today. Now we are finally settling in and slowly finding a routine/shift.

Update on Tyler...he does have a mild case of jaundice, but not enough to warrant a sun lamp and home health care, which is great. We had him tested again today and that was the news. We go back next week and will have him tested one more time to see if it is clearing up. But more than likely us putting him near the window during the day will be enough sunlight.

I have created a slide show of the pics from our camera. Nini (Wendy's Mom) and others have the rest which we should be getting this week.

A Couple More Pictures

Tyler David Peacock

Tyler David Peacock arrived at 1:30 pm on November 20, 2008. We are thrilled with our littlest one and are completely enjoying him. He weighed 8 lbs 1 oz, 22" long and has lots of hair.

Days Away

I just thought I would take this time to let everyone know, if you don't already, that baby TD will be here by the end of the week. I will have to tell Jeremy how to post pictures but we should have a couple up on Friday sometime (or earlier if he wants to come earlier). So check back with us then.

In the mean time, I am killing time today. Tomorrow I go for a NST (Non-Stress Test) to check baby's movements and to see if I am having any contractions. On Wednesday we are admitted to the hospital and they will start some meds to get me to thin out and possibly dilate. If nothing happens, then Thursday morning they will definitely do a c-section. I am excited and thrilled and a little nervous about the whole birth thing. But at this point I am so ready to meet my son, that the pain seems insignificant.

Ever Wonder...

Have you ever wondered what a pregnant woman does when her due date comes and goes? Well luckily for me, my mom (Nina) has been in town trying to keep me preoccupied until little TD arrives. In the course of the past 2-3 days, we (her mainly) have managed to decorate the entire interior of my house for Christmas. We did not do the outside yet, because I didn't want to be that person that has their decorations up forever before the holiday. We are saving that for Thanksgiving weekend. Below are several pictures from the interior of the house. I love having my own personal decorator that only charges me to have her a grandchild.
