Zach is 2 weeks old!!!
Seriously - this cliche has been running through my head constantly in the past weeks. Time flies when you are having fun. I don't want Dan to leave, so of course these past few weeks have flown by. And now I woke up this morning to realize that Zach is already 2 weeks old!!! SERIOUSLY!?!?!????
He had his 2 week DR appointment a few days ago. He has grown 1 inch and is 22 inches now! And, he weighs 8 lbs and 13 oz. Even though he was born at 9 lbs, he dropped to 8 lbs 2 oz in the hospital. (Which is completely normal.) He has just about caught up to his birth weight. According to his pediatrician, he is a healthy little dude! He is in the 50% percentile with his weight. And he is 92% percentile with his length!
He is a content little man. The only time he cries is when he pees up the side of his outfit. Or when he is starving and can not get food quick enough. He sleeps 4-5 hours at a time. Since we have been going to bed around midnight, we only wake up once at night! And, (even though Ben is quite smart) I don't remember Ben being so quick in his early development. Zach can grab onto his burp cloth with his hands. He can hold his hand up to his pacifier to keep it in his mouth. At 2 days old he started to lift his neck. And continues to hold up his head. And when he is awake he is always looking around and very attentive. I told Dan that Zach reminds me of a little Yoda. He seems so wise for such a little one. Ben's nickname is monkey. Zach is our little turtle. Okay, now that I have bragged about our newest little addition....... :) Enjoy some pictures......
