Professional pictures

Lennon got some professional pictures done this past weekend! He did a great job, and the pictures turned out pretty good. I can't save them from the site, but you can see them if you click here. Let us know which one(s) you want and we'll order them for you, or you can order copies yourself. I think all of you that read this should be getting a wallet picture today or tomorrow in the mail.

Lennon has BAD baby acne. It got so bad that I thought it was eczema, but a doctor's visit yesterday revealed that he's just got really, really bad overactive sebaceous glands and his skin is really broken out. You can see it in the professional pictures which were taken on Saturday, but Sunday it got absolutely horrible. The doctor prescribed a steroid cream and it's already helping after just one application. It should be mostly or all cleared up within three days. Poor guy, it doesn't look like it feels too good.

A rare moment of sleep.


Lennon's a very picky sleeper, as you can see.

Baby it's cold outside

Our little butterball

When Lennon was born, he was 7 pounds, 2 ounces. Today he had a doctor's appointment and he's now 9 pounds, 12 ounces! He's growing SO FAST!

On a less fun note, we've discovered that Lennon has pretty bad acid reflux, which has been causing him some pretty bad pain and discomfort, spitting up, and making him unable to sleep well. It's also making feedings pretty rough. He's now on an antacid medication and we're switching him from milk-based formula to soy-based. He's still getting breast milk too, since I'm pumping, but maybe now that he'll be feeling better, we may be more successful with breastfeeding. I'm hoping he feels better! I hate knowing that my baby is in pain :( It breaks my heart.

Here's a picture from yesterday:

Lennon's doing well. Perhaps a bit colicky... we're sleeping when we can, which isn't often.
