Firsts...

Landon's Firsts...

This is a long one to try to get caught up, you will see him grow so quickly, I can't believe how true it is. I am sure I missed some, but I will make every effort to document him at least weekly. Who am I kidding, I'll be adding pictures all the time =)

First Day: Landon arrived at our home around 9:00pm after his long journey. Jody was the first to feed him and also the first to be puked on, little did we know at this point that Landon puke was a smell we would become all to familiar with. 

First Night: We are not sure what people complain about...he slept from 11pm - 6am. We on the other hand woke up every 20 minutes to make sure he was still breathing. 

First Doctor's Appointment: Titi Christiane and I took him to the pediatrician. The little munchkin was a whopping 6lbs 11ozs and 20 inches long.

First Bath: Thanks to Christina, he was bathed on the counter and YEP he peed everywhere =)

First Christmas: Was an amazing one for us all. My parents flew in from Florida with my brother, we had Christmas Eve with Jody's dad, Charlene, Uncle Charlie, Mom-Mom, my parents, Uncle Richie and Aunt Sarah and Uncle Phil.

First New Year's Eve: A Knollwood Road tradition, a whole lot of nothing we barely made it to midnight!

New Year's Day: We spent the morning with Nanny and Pappy and his brother's Raiden (2) and Payton (1) and his Uncle Derek (14). We then had the "good luck" New Year's meal with Jody's mom (Grandmom), Bob (Pappy), Aunt CC and Uncle Bobby

First Visit to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia: Unfortunately, he will have lots of these. Landon has Hydronephrosis (kidney issue, the right kidney is only functioning at 20%) and GI issues (severe acid reflux). He has a Soy, Milk and Milk Protein Allergy. After some scares with weight loss we have found the magic combination of EleCare (formula) and Previcid... he's doing very well. 

First Visit with his "Sister," Milly: Milly came to visit. She was so good with him. Our home couldn't have felt as complete as it did that weekend.

First Attempt at Baby Cereal: This did not go so well. And this is when we learned more about his allergies and found out I would be making all of his baby food =)




First Day of "School:" I could not have asked for a better daycare provider. The first picture I like to call "Mom told me she was going back to work tomorrow."
