Cole had his 2 week check up yesterday and he is still a healthy baby boy. I was a little surprised at his weight - he only weighed 8 pounds 13 ounces. I am not sure what his discharge weight was when we left the hospital but he seems to be eating and happy so we are not worried. They also measured him and told me he was 21.25 inches - which means that he shrunk. The nurse said babies don't shrink so someone mis-measured him but we don't know if it was at birth or yesterday, the nurse didn't remeasure him. Overall it was a pretty uneventful appointment. The only real excitement that we had was Annabelle was with us and was very busy and curious about everything that was in the exam room.
Cole is still doing well at home - we are very lucky! He is starting to have more awake time during the day, which is nice. He then usually sleeps most of the evening so we are able to get through supper and spend some time with Annabelle. He has some awake time around 8:00 and then I try to feed him sometime around 10:00 and then he normally will go to bed. He will get up about 4 hours after he eats and eat again and then is right back asleep for another 4 hours or so. It is remarkable that he does so well at night - we thought baby number 2 was going to give us a run for our money but so far so good.
