today our little baby turned 3 weeks old! as i was looking back on my blog from when keller was born, i realized i did a TERRIBLE job of documenting his first weeks. the whole reason i have this blog is to document their lives...so here i go with round 2, trying to do a better job :)
canon was born 3 weeks ago, weighing 6 lbs, 11 oz and 18.5 in long. when he went to his 2 weeks check-up last week he had gained up to 7 lbs 4 oz and measured 21.5 in!! they measured him 3 times to make sure, then they decided that he'd been measured wrong at birth, because he hadn't grown 3 inches in 13 days :) here is a run down of what he is like so far...
- he is a very good baby for us so far! i almost hesitate to even say anything about it because i don't want to jinx it! :) God has been so good to us with sweet babies
- he sleeps so much still right now, it is almost impossible to wake him up for some feedings, he only nurses for 5-7 minutes sometimes
- he sleeps pretty good at night. he is on a 3 hr schedule in the day, starting at 7 a.m. and ending at 10 p.m. at this point he is waking up again around 2 a.m. and then 6 a.m. (i am hoping and praying that he starts to stretch this out so that he will have only 1 true "middle of the night" feeding)
- he and keller get along great right now, not much interaction, but keller loves to kiss him on his head and play with his toes :)
"seriously with the camera again mom??"
"okay, i'll ham it up....hi!!"
look how long i am!
"sitting"
happy 3 week birthday buddy!!
