Three Years Old!

Yesterday was Jaegers birthday- how is it even possible that he's 3? It feels like just yesterday he was Mavericks size.








And now he's huge and talking all the time. Still in diapers though and not showing any interest in potty training.






Maverick had his 2 month check up today and all is good. The chunker has made it off the premie growth chart and onto the normal one. His 9lbs 12 oz puts him just about at 10 percentile (the only time my kiddos will be on the "small" side). Poor guy got the trio of vaccines so he's sleepy/fussy now.

Time Flies

I can't believe how much Maverick has grown over the past 6+ weeks. I found 2 pictures that do a good job showing it.



Day of discharge on April 26 - 5 lbs 2 oz


June 3 - probably close to 9 lbs (yes, that is a double chin you see)

Awake time

Maverick is starting to have some longer periods of awake time - I love getting to see his beautiful eyes and can't wait to see his personality compared to his older brothers.






"Mom, quit taking so many pictures"


He's still in newborn sized clothes but I expect him to move up to 0-3 months soon.


Jaxons class went to a pond just down the street from us and Mav and I joined them. Baby boy wasn't too impressed.

Due Date

Today is his original due date which means Maverick is one day shy of 6 weeks old. He is 8 lbs 8 oz, right on par for the birth weights of his older brothers who were full term babies (Jaxon was 8#9 and Jaeger was 8 even). We had a neuro appointment this morning and got great news. His ventricles look good and are not enlarged. His back has healed nicely as well. No more neuro until our spina bifida clinic day in July!

Some faces of Maverick

I've captured quite a few different face pictures of Maverick over the last week - enjoy!






























Also this guy is now 7 lbs 12 oz of cuteness:)

Celebration

To celebrate Maverick being 1 month old, he got to come on date night to our friends' wedding last night. I took only 1 picture - selfie 😄

Brothers

I always thought that Jaxon and Jaeger looked alike right from the start. Maverick has been a little harder for me to determine who he'll take after. And then I had Maverick's pictures done and I get this one - yup, he is totally a Hughes boy just like his brothers!



He had a weight check with his pediatrician on Tues and is now up to 6lbs 9oz so a nice solid weight gain as evidenced by some cute chubby cheeks.
