One month old!

Here are some pics! Heinz was one month old on April 21st. :-) 

This boy loves to have his hands and arms up around his head and face! "Hmmm, mama I'm thinking!!!" 

We had a busy week --- probably too busy. You will see later that I am going to be home a lot more now. Pumping. And that is okay. :-) here is a sweet pic I snagged of Heinz and Maggie at lunch one day. 

This week we had jenny McNeill (the fabulous photographer from our wedding) do some newborn pictures of Heinz. He did such a good job -- was so wide eyed and happy! :-) love this boy! Here is a sneak peak of some of the beautiful pictures! 

I love having this boy in my arms and those kisses are my favorite. :-) 

We also went to Johnny's school this week for ward Stewart idol. Johnny sang "this girl is on fire" with three other boys. Johnny was nervous but he did an outstanding job! :-) it was fun to see him and some of my old students. :-)

On Friday I took Heinz by the doctor to get weighed again.... He's not losing weight but he is not gaining weight fast enough. Brad and I are working really hard to get this boy gaining. I have started pumping to use breast milk bottles as supplementation after I pump. I am trying everything I can before using formula. I have talked with a lactation consultant -- trying everything I can! I am taking Heinz back to the doctor on Tuesday to be weighed and then meeting to the LC. Please keep us in your prayers l,  but especially him. Thankful that he hasn't been losing weight but need him to start gaining faster. 

While I nurse I am talking to heinz to keep him engaged and actively nursing. One of the things we talk about is praying. I am teaching him how to pray using his hand!! Check out this picture! 

It's late. I'm up pumping -- but so so happy to.
