The Boring Bailey's: I'm Two Weeks Old Today!

Well, I've got lots to talk about today! For starters, I'm two weeks old today! My momma and daddy can't believe that it's only been two weeks since I was born. I suppose that has a lot to do with the fact that I won't let them sleep through the night, so they are sleep deprived and momma says she doesn't even know what day it is most of the time! I bet it also has something to do with me wanting to play between midnight and 2 am! I don't think they like that too much and they can't figure out that I really don't like that blue thing they call a 'passy' when I'm ready to play!

So, I had my two week check up today with my doctor. Here are the details of that visit as well as my other two visits:

First visit: 11/14/10: I weighed 7 lbs 8 oz - when I was born, I weighed 8 lbs 1/2 oz; when I left the hospital, I weighed 8 lbs. My doctor wasn't too happy to see that I had lost 1/2 lb over 4 days, so I had to go back to see her that same week.

Second visit: 11/18/10: I weighed 7 lbs 12 oz. My doctor was very happy to see that I had gained 4 oz over three days! She said that most babies gained on average an ounce a day, but I had been eating really well and I gained more than an ounce a day!

Third visit: 11/24/10: Today, I weighed 8 lbs 8 oz! Yes, that is 8 & 1/2 pounds! My momma kept saying that I was gaining weight! She even said that she could tell that my feet were getting fat! She also keeps saying something about how she doesn't like marathon eating sessions, but I'm a growing boy and she needs to get used to it! Besides, my doctor was happy that I'd gained weight but momma and daddy were very surprised that I'd gained 3/4 of a pound in one week! For those that are mathematically challenged, that's 12 oz in 7 days!

So, momma has been taking pictures of me this week.... It really annoys me, but I'm sure that I'll appreciate the pictures one day. It seems to make her happy to take my picture, so I suffer through it - just like I suffer through diaper changes and baths! Below are some pics my momma took this week!
