Welcome to Bedrock: Month Three!

Abram has been both a joy and a handful this month! We got to do all sorts of things both fun and not so. Abram got to go to his first playoff game, learn to chuckle, stay in his first hotel room, go to his first thanksgiving, take his first trip "home", get his first stomach bug, got in his first car wreck, spent a lot of time shopping, and spend time under his first Christmas tree. We had to go to his pediatrician this month because he wasn't eating well. Come to find out, he had thrush again. Right after that he got a cold of some sort that turned cruddy quickly, but we fought it off with vicks rub and the humidifier. His Nana and PaPaw came to see us at the beginning of the month to watch a playoff game in Plainview. It was a great but very short visit. He was very fussy, and very spit-uppy, but it was refreshing to have visitors. We switched formula many more times this month to try to find something that would settle well, and spent most of the month on Enfamil AR. This has worked the best at this point. At the Dr., he weighed in at 14.35 pounds which put him at almost three pounds gained in a month. Dr. Maaytah was very impressed with this and said that he must be keeping down enough at this point not to worry! He developed a smile that has charmed many people with dimples that can be seen from every angle. We spent another weekend in Wichita Falls with my family for the second playoff game. Although we lost, it was amazing to see how many people drove all the way to watch a football game and visit. We also got to go home the next weekend and spent time in Arlington looking at cars, in Hamilton seeing the Watson side, Waco the Thom side, Stephenville to see the Glovers, and spent time eating lunch at J&D's with Dad and C. Abram has two new cousins this month too. After we got home from Thanksgiving, we put up the tree. Abram was in awe with the lights and it brought me so much joy to hang our new family ornament and decorate our home for the holidays. Sadly, we hit a deer this month. It was very late and very scary for all three of us in the car. Adam was driving and did a great job of handling the situation with the police and tow trucks while I got a ride home to get Abram to sleep. It was still a great month to watch him learn who we are, learn to sleep better through the night, and learn how to start grasping for things that he wanted!
