• Jaxon started only taking formula. He didn't want to breastfeed after trying out the bottle.
• He takes 4 ounces of formula at a time.
• He sleeps with his arms above his head.
• His umbilical cord fell off the 21st.
• He had his first tub bath today. He liked it a whole lot better than the sponge bath.
• He is still wearing size 1 diapers which he's been in since he was born.
• He wears size 0-3 months or 3 months. He has outgrown all newborn outfits and a lot of his 0-3 months clothes.
• He started "tummy time" and lifts his head for short periods of time.
• When he's awake his legs are going strong all the time. He can't keep them still.
• He loves to lay on our chests and lay his head on his hands just like Mason did.
• He is starting to stay awake more. He stays awake for two to three hours during the morning and evening hours.
• He loves to be worn in a carrier on my chest so he can see everything that's going on around him.
• He's soothed by reading which Mason loves to do with him.
• He's very ticklish.
• His repeat newborn screening came back abnormal and his fatty acids were low. We had to have it repeated and it came back normal this time.
• He recognizes the voices of me, Tim and Mason and turns his head whenever we are talking.
• He smiles and laughs out loud in his sleep but doesn't do it while he's awake.
