OUR NEW FAMILY! I know I look like I just got hit by a truck, but I have a good reason for that...I just had a baby.

Baby Jett

Today was a great day. Jett and I went on a 4 mile walk/run bcause I still have some baby weight to lose. He did really good until the last mile when he started to spit up over and over. I took Alice, my brother Brian's dog, with me and she ditched me on the last 2 miles. I went past our driveway to go down to the end of the road again, I looked back and she was gone! Apparently she tired. She's definately Brian's dog!
Jett's such a happy baby. Look how big he is! He's 7 and a half weeks old.
He still has thrush so that's why his face has a purple tint to it. He loves to stare out the window, which he's doing in this picture.
He's trying to smile in this picture. He hasn't smiled directly at me, but he smiled today when he was playing by himself. He could have just passed gas though, so I don't know. But any day now I hope to see a smile.

Catch-Up Photos

I just wanted to show everyone a couple pictures from over the past couple of months. I have a ton more, but I don't want to bore you. These are just a few of my favorite. I can't believe how big Jett is getting!

Jett was putting himself to sleep by holding his own pacifier in.
Look how old his face looks. He's definatley a lot chunkier though. He weighs almost 12 lbs. now. He has gained a pound a week since he's come home from he hospital. Hopefully that will taper off or he'll look like his tank cousin Maddox! Just kidding Melea :)
Just sleeping in the sun and loving it.

Nana Elizabeth changed her first diaper!
The Joker! If you've seen the newest Batman movie you'll know what I'm talking about. Poor little Jett has thrush. We tried the better tasting medicine, but that didn't work so we had to use this other stuff called Gentin Violet. It dies everything it touches purple...Including me if you know what I mean! Thrush is a yeast infection in the mouth, which if it gets bad enough it could make it hard for a baby to nurse because it hurts to suck. Jett had it ALL over in his mouth and he had the hardest time nursing for a little while, but now he's doing a lot better.
This is Jett before his bath. The arm that is up next to him is my brother Brian. Poor Jett, I think he got his father's skin...WHITE! Oh, he loves takig baths.
This is Grandma Sneck who was supposed to be rocking Jett to sleep. Obviously that didn't happen! He's such a big boy.
Jett taking a ride in his stroller. This was his first stroller ride thanks to my cousin Amber who had a carseat adapter for my stroller. He slept the whole time except for the last couple of minutes when he woke up because he had gas. Must be the Sneck coming out in him!

Four generations!!! Jett, Zachary, Terry, and Grandpa Gene.
My sister Melea playing cards while holding Jett.
The 9th of July, 2 days after Jett was born, my sister, her husband and her son flew in from Kentucky. Their luggage got lost so she is wearing all of my clothes. Don't ask what I'm doing in the background, I couldn't tell you!
Melea rocking Jett.
Jett. (That date on the picture is wrong, obviously!)

This is my nephew Maddox and my cousin Whitney. Maddox just woke up from a nap and his hair looked too cute, so I had to take a picture of him.
Maddox at the hospital with Jett. Maddox is 7 months older than Jett. He's huge! I can't believe that Jett is going to be that big someday.
Cool hat Jeef...NOT!

Oh, and you have a big head! :)

Our Family Blog

I know, I know, this is a long time over due. Better late then never, right! Melea, I hope you're happy. Things have been crazy with a new baby, so I've been trying to figure out life. I actually just figured out how to take a shower without someone watching Jett. It was about a 30 sec. shower, but I did it none the less. I'm SLOWLY adjusting to being a mom, but I wouldn't change a thing. I have the most perfect son in the whole world. Hopefully I can figure out this blog thing to post a picture or a video of him. My sister has shown me numerous times how to do it, but this time I'm going to figure it out.

This is Jett Zachary Pitts. He was born the 7th of July at 8:34 am weighing in at 6 lbs. 2 oz. and 18 1/2 inches long. He's obviously a lot bigger now, but I was just learning how to post a picture.
