They grow so fast!

I never knew what it would feel like to just watch your kids grow until now. McCoy is growing so fast it's crazy. I was actually having a hard time getting him to feed well and it was kind of worrying us. We thought he might have acid reflex because every time I was feeding him all he would do was scream. It was probably the hardest thing because I felt like I was making him miserable. I finally took him to the doctors to get him tested for reflex. They weighed him to make sure that he wasn't loosing any weight. Well the results made me realize that I was just being over paranoid parent and they didn't need to do any tests. He weighed 10 lbs 9 oz. My son that was born one month ago already weighs over 10 1/2 lbs! I didn't realize that he really was growing that fast. That's over 2 oz. a day! He was having a hard time eating because he wasn't really hungry. I've tried feeding him a little longer between feedings and fewer minutes. He's doing much better now and feeding him is much more pleasant. He really is getting to be a chunker and comparing him in pictures, he really has grown a ton. 

Here he is at 3 different weeks. He's wearing the same pair of pants and they are getting tighter and tighter:)
 
3 weeks old
 

4 weeks old
 
5 weeks old
 (I guess these pictures don't really do it justice. But his belly is for sure getting bigger.)

 
"Life is good..." That's for sure. Life really is amazing with McCoy around. He makes both Trevor and me smile every single day. It's exciting to wake up in the morning and know that I have my little friend to play with. 

 
This "Binky connector" is the best thing I've purchased. I never have to search anymore for the little thing or have to wonder where in the world it went when he's in his car-seat.


 
He's our little gangsta' :)
 
 Trevor loves his "Daddy Time"
