I can't believe it has already been one week since Sully was born! I always heard people say how fast time goes by when you have a child and never really understood how that was possible until now. Every day we notice Sully growing and changing. He is very animated with his hands and will sit in his swing for hours just looking around. We have already figured out his cries and his faces and he is very predictable and methodical already. One thing I can't seem to figure out is to get him still enough to take a picture. He is always wiggling around and can't sit still just like his daddy!
On Sunday we had to take him to his pediatrician because he was a little jaundice. Luckily all we had to do was put in a little sunlight for a few days and it went away. Tuesday we had our follow up appointment with our lactation nurse and everything went very well. We found out his bilirubin levels had dropped back down and that he was already back up to his birth weight plus half an ounce!! So we have definitely got one healthy little boy!!
Our house has been filled with family and friends ever since we got home from the hospital which has been a life saver for Josh and I. Because of this we have been able to get some great sleep over the past few days with my mom, Josh's step-mom Linda and his sister Rebecca staying with us. Sully is waking up to eat every 2-3 hours during the night and Josh and I have been taking turns on who changes and burps him so that we can both get some rest.
This is his picture at 1 week old.....thank you again Amber for the beautiful quilt! We will be using this quilt each week/month to take his picture.
He is so cute!! Looks alot like his momma to me! WHat does everyone else think? Congrats to you guys!
