Well, here we are at week two and it was just as great as week one! Daddy went back to work this week after having a week off, but grandma is still here to help me. Thank God! Daddy and I love getting to know you more and more everyday. You’re still nursing every three hours during the day. After your late night feed, at 9:00pm, mommy tries to let you sleep as long as you want, but you are still waking up every 3-4 hours. I don’t mind, waking up because I know that it will not last forever. You are very alert when you are awake, but your awake times are minimal (30-40 minutes and then your back to sleep. A growing boy needs plenty of sleep. Here are the highlights and pictures of the second week of your life! 8 pounds 11 ounces (66th percentile)
- You also had your 2 week pediatrician visit. You’re growing and gaining weight well!
- You had your newborn photo shoot this week too. More to come on a different post!
- You love your rock and play sleeper and this is what you’ve been sleeping in right next to mommy.
- You went on your first family walk since the weather was nice and warm.
- You tried out your swing for the first time and seemed to like it for about 15 minutes.
- You went to restaurant for the first time with mommy and grandma after your newborn photos.
- You also met your uncle Alex for the first time.
- Since your umbilical cord fell off, you also had your first real bath. You loved it! You stayed so calm the entire time!
