HAYDEN JACKS 1ST BIRTHDAY PARTY GIRAFFE THEMED AUGUST 25, 2012

Well on August 25, 2012 (1 year from the date I brought my tiny prince home) We celebrated his very 1st birthday with a gifaffe themed party!!! We started out the morning by going to breakfast with Granny at the Cracker Barrel and HJ loved it and had the best time!!! Then we came home and started decorating for the party! We had giraffe decor with matching balloons and all!!!! Here's some of the decor!!! My little man was even decked out in giraffe gear with his cute personalized giraffe t shirt, his super cute giraffe barefoot sandals, and his giraffe print cloth diaper. First we decided to do presents, some of them were bigger than he was!!! Then it was time for CAKE: He was waiting on it and loved it, even had seconds LOL!!! After we had our cake, it was time to play with some new toys, but he thought his racetrack was a new chair!!!!!!!! After that we went to CiCi's Pizza for supper and came home and just relaxed and played the rest of the day, Oh and at CiCi's he even had a giraffe print sippy cup :)

Hayden Jack is 1 year old!!!

My goodness I dont even know where to begin. I can not believe that my tiny boy is 1 year old. This year has flown by soooo fast. Here's a look back at Hayden Jack's very 1st year. Hayden Jack aka as Jack or HJ was born at 5:36 am on Tuesday, August 23, 2011. He first weighed in at 7lb 5.6 oz and was 19 inches long. He was immediately looked at by the nicu team and had his lungs suctioned out because he wasnt breathing well. They got alot of fluid out and he was perfect!!!! After that he weighed in at 6lb 11oz. He immediately breastfed like a champ. We stayed in the hospital for 2 days and went home on August 25, 2011 and he was then 6lb. At a few days old, a home health nurse came out and weighed him and he was weighing in at just 4lb. 15oz. Even preemie clothes were big on him. He even wore preemie diapers!!!! He was tiny, but perfect! After a couple of weeks, he eventually started to slowly gain weight. ****************1 MONTH OLD**************************** At 1 month old Hayden Jack was still very tiny at just under 8lbs and 20inches long. He was wearing preemie and newborn clothes and newborn diapers. We began to expect he had a milk protein allergy because he had a terrible rash all over his face, he cried alot after he nursed, and he spit up alot everytime he nursed. At 5 weeks old we were told he probably had a milk protein allergy and was switched over to Enfamil Prosobee for sensitive tummies. It was a soy based formula. He smiled for the first time at 6 weeks old!!!!! *******************2 MONTHS OLD************************ At 2 months old Hayden Jack was just 9lbs and 21 inches long. He still wore newborn diapers and newborn clothes. He was in a size 0 shoe. Since we stopped nursing and switched to the soy formula for sensitive tummies the rash is gone!! He slept so well and just smiled and cooed all the time. Such a happy baby!

He was still in newborn clothes and newborn diapers and a size 0 shoe. The enfamil prosobee for sensitive tummies soy formula made him very constipated and so we had to switch formulas again to the enfamil nutramigen, which is a hypoallergenic formula.

He also had his very 1st Thanksgiving!!!!! **********************4 MONTHS OLD************************* At 4 months old Hayden Jack was 10lbs and 22.75 in long.
