16 weeks!!

I'm back........ Hey, time flies when your having fun! Since the last time I wrote Truett has had his first Easter and first road trip. Now we are in Kansas City, MO with daddy for a CAT (astrophe). We spend most of the day eating, sleeping, and pooping. No, seriously we read books, learn spanish, work on our hand-eye coordination, holding our head up during belly time, rolling over, singing, walking, crawling, you name it and we work on it. Who does Truett think he is ... a baby!! Not at mommy's bootcamp! Hehe.... I'm so kidding. Truett thinks all we do all day long is play but I know secretly we're working.

I've been able to work out a good bit back home (Wayne relieves me for an hour) while I go to the gym. Up here I have Truett all day every day. So during one of his waketimes we go workout. Truett sings to me or the mirror and I run for 10 min and the stair climber 10 min, 6 days a week. It's not too bad. I've been able to lose a couple of pounds. I'm down to 113 lbs. which is still 8 lbs. from where I want to be in the end. I lost 3 lbs. in the last week, so it seems to be coming off faster now. I want to lose 5 lbs. while still breastfeeding and the remaining 3 when he's done, at about 6 months.


He has been on rice cereal for a couple of weeks now, and he's got the hang of it. We keep making it a little thicker each time and by next week we'll start on some veggies!! He loves "singing"
and playing with daddy in the evenings. We will take him to the indoor pool here in the next couple of weeks! He taked 2 really good naps during the day and 2 short naps. He is sleeping 8-9 hours at night. All credit goes to the book "Babywise" for helping me with his schedule.


He is about 14.5 lbs. and 25.5 inches. He has grown so much and is in the 75th-90th percentile in height and 50th for weight. He was so small at birth it's hard to believe how much he's grown, 6 inches!!! Well.... let me know if you guys have any questions. Hopefully I'll update more soon!!
