7 weeks

Hi everyone!  Hope you had a great weekend.  We had a wonderful time with Mimi & Pops.  Jack loved all the cuddle time and attention.  He cuddled with Mimi, and napped on Pops.  It was so amazing to see my parents in a different light like that.  It is clear they LOVE being grandparents, which makes my heart happy.  I've always hope my children will have their own version of my Mama & Papa Mac.  I have always adored my Mama & Papa Mac and I'm sure little Jack will feel the same.

I think we hit a growth spurt this week.  Around Wed Jack started to be hungry every 1-1.5 hours and was terribly fussy.  He wasn't sleeping very well at all, but after about 2 days, he pretty much slept the entire day and night.  That's one thing with Jack, when has a "bad" night, he always rewards us with a good one :) 

Jon missed out on all the fun this weekend because he was turkey hunting. He had a great time though and even got a kill!  We ate Mr. Turkey on Monday, and I have to say, it def wasn't as tender and juicy as the turkey breasts we normally get, but I'm happy he at least got a kill.

On Sunday, we had our friends,  Abby & Drew over.  Abby and I used to live together, and Drew is actually now my new boss.  They are expecting their own little bundle of joy in May.  We are so excited they are back in TX and that they are having a little boy as well!  I'm sure Jack and Baby G will have a great time getting into trouble together.  Playdates are in our future.  Jack was sweet as can be with Abby, and then decided to show Drew just how well his lungs worked.

We figured out Jack likes Guns N Roses.  I was in the shower last night and heard him screaming bloody murder.  Luckily, Jon was home.  I got out and didn't hear him crying anymore.  I found Jon by the Bose system with Guns N Roses playing and Jack was fast asleep :)  Maybe all the music playing while Jack was in my belly payed off after all??  

Today was a big day for Jack and I both.  It was our first running date at my beloved Town Lake.  I got clearance to run last week, but the weather wasn't really working in my favor, and today was the first chance we had to get down there.  Jack did great!  I thought he would sleep the entire time, but instead, he was awake the entire run!  He was taking in all the sights and smells I guess.  We met 2 sweet women at the end that just went crazy over the little guy. They couldn't believe how well he was holding his head up all on his own. They took several pictures for us.  Unfortunately, they don't have any grandkids of their own, they seem like they would be fabulous grandmothers!

This week we are going to my office to visit everyone, and then Auntie CJ will be here!!!  We can't wait to see her!

Well hope you have a great week!

Lots of love,
The Waags
