Memories from Week 2

Feb 24-Mar 2: Things started to slow down at our house during week 2. We limited visitors so that we could rest and start getting used to being a family. Martin took the week off to bond with Aiden and of course, to help out! By day 9, he started feeding only three times in the night so we finally got to sleep several hours at a time...which was amazing. We spent a LOT of time catching up on sleep. Aiden can stand straight up and army crawl up and across my body after he is done nursing and he is smiling a lot. He is amazingly strong and is gaining weight rapidly. We took him to the Dr.'s two days before his well check because we were concerned about his belly button, but they said it was fine and they weighed him in at 9.4lbs. He had his 2 week well check on 3/2/11 and weighed in at 9lbs 7oz and he was 21 3/4 in long. His umbilical cord partially fell off right before his appointment, so we were relieved. Aiden is doing great!
