I’m Two Weeks Old (Last Tuesday)….
…and I weigh 7 pounds and 12 ounces
…and my favorite night activity is to fall asleep on dads chest
…and I don’t care much for diaper changes that involve wipes
…and I really don’t care for baths
…and I like to eat all of the time
…and my umbilical cord fell off (at 17 days old)
…and I like to take walks, as long as I ate first
…and I don’t mind when my big brother gives me tongue baths
…and I still sleep a lot during the day. In fact, the doctor gave me homework to get my schedule adjusted so that I am up more during the day and not so restless in the early evening.
…and I will sleep for a 5 hour stretch at night, as long as it is ON or NEAR mom or dad. During the day, I will sleep anywhere- hence the homework.
…and my features are changing daily
…and I am starting to smile in my sleep
…and I have 10 long hairs on the crown of my head
…and my feet and hands are long like daddy’s
…and I scowl in my sleep like mom
…and my flat ear is finally taking shape. The Doctor said it was probably flat because that is where I laid my head in utero.
…and I open my eyes when I dream
…and I found my thumb- I just don’t quite know how to suck on it yet
…and I like my blue soothie pacifier
