It has been awhile since I have had a chance to post anything. We have been busy busy taking care of our new baby boy. I cannot believe he is already 3 weeks old. I feel like he looks completely different than the day he was born, so we are trying to take as many pictures as possible to savor every moment. In the past 3 weeks, a lot has happened. Connor has lost his ring and his lil pee pee is doing great, and his umbilical cord fell off as well. Connor had his 2 week check-up at the doctor. Everything went great! He did not like getting naked to get weighed, but we got through it. He had already gained a pound and grew 2 inches. He weighed 7.6 pounds and measured 20 1/2 inches, but I know he has gained and grown more since then. I asked them doctor my entire list full of questions, and she was so nice to answer all of them without getting annoyed. She was pleased with his color and was not worried about jaundice anymore, which was a relief. Then I had to take him to another room to get his blood drawn. He did not mind the heel pricks, but he hated the nurse squeezing his foot over and over again.
In the past 3 weeks, we have been enjoying hanging out as our little family at home. We have had lots of visitors to see our little man as well. Connor has been eating about every 3 hours, but sometimes he will sleep about 4-5 hours through the night (which makes me really excited). He was eating 2 ounces, but this past week he has been eating about 3 ounces every feeding. I call him my little hungry hungry hippo :) Now that his cord feel off, we could start giving him "real" baths. We were excited to see that he LOVES baths!!! This is one of favorite times with him now. When he sleeps, he makes these faces that make my heart melt. My favorite is when he gives me a huge smile for a few seconds! I can't explain the feelings and love I have for my little man, but it is like no love that I have ever felt before.
