2 weeks old

We went to the Dr. today for B's 2 week check-up. He is doing great! He now weighs 8 lbs. 8 oz and is 22 inches. This puts him in the 85% for height and between the 25-50% for weight. Looks like he might be long and lanky like his dad. Of course only time will tell. The doctor was really impressed because by their 2 week check up they want babies back at their birth weight and he is almost a pound over. I could have guessed that he had gained a lot because he eats a lot and we change a lot of diapers : )

We are doing really well. We are getting used to sleeping in smaller chunks of time. B does pretty well at night. He will get up every few hours to eat, and is usually put back to sleep somewhat soon after by being rocked. Of course I hope I didn't just jinx us! I have learned not to expect any patterns with newborns and take every hour as it comes.
