Thursday's Afternoon Nap

Two Weeks Old

Wes is two weeks old today. He has already gained 11 ounces from his birth weight, so he is now 7 lbs. He is waking his mommy up about every 2 to 3 hours at night. My days have been going by so fast and I find that I am not very productive, because I just sit and stare at him all day long.

Yep, that is a double chin you see peeking out in this photo. Watch out girls, isn't he irresistible in his "captain adorable" shirt?

Visits from Grandpas & Grandmas

We had grandpa and grandma visits over the weekend. Wes loved being held all weekend long. He was held so much that I am having a hard time getting him to nap on his own this week. :)

Fun Times at Home

I think I like this tummy time thing.

I love nap time too.

One Week Old

Wes is one week old already. He had his first doctor's appointment on Tuesday. He has already gained five ounces from his birth weight. Here are some pictures from the last few days.

This is one of Wes' favorite ways to be held. He tucks all up and snuggles in close.

He has finally decided to have more awake time during the day.

Our first attempt at tummy time wasn't very successful. He decided that nap

time sounded better.

First Day and a Half at Home

We made it home on Sunday just in time for the Michigan State basketball game. Ben and Wes settled into the lazyboy. I'm sure will be the first picture of many.

On Monday Wes played (slept) on his jungle gym mat...

and slept in his bouncer.

Homeward Bound

After five days in the hospital we were finally able to go home on Sunday afternoon. Wes has decided to eat like a champ.

Okay, I'm ready to go home now.

My daddy is an EXCELLENT driver.

I think I'll take a nap during our 8 minute drive home.

Woohoo!

Yay! Wes decided that he finally wanted to drink a whole bottle at all of his feedings today. His typical routine had been drink like crazy for a few minutes and poop out half way through. Today he decided to drink like crazy until his bottle was gone and then poop out. We hope that our pediatrician has some good news for us tomorrow. I guess we will just have to wait and see. Our fingers are crossed that we will get to go home soon.
