1-Week old!

Today is Shane's due date and he is officially 1-week old today.  He is doing great!  His eyes are still bloodshot from his birth, and he still has black eyes, but he doesn't seem to be in any pain.  Let's see...where to begin.
This week he tested negative for jaundice, thank goodness!  He was 10lbs 12oz at birth, 10.3 when we left the hospital and 9.15 on Saturday at our jaundice appt.  On Monday, I took him to our pediatrician for the 1st time and he weighed 10.6 and was 22" long.  So he is starting to regain his weight and that makes me VERY happy.  Our next pedi appt is next week.  I think he has his days and nights confused.  He sleeps great after feedings during the day and then at night...not so much.  Last night he went on a feeding spree for about 3 hours and it was exhausting.  He is a little cuddle bug and likes being held:)  And his umbilical cord fell off when he was 3 days old.
And on a personal note.  I gained 51lbs with Shane.  I have lost 22lbs in Week 1.  I have 29 more to go to get back to pre-pregnancy weight.  Oh and all my rings fit and are in fact a little loose.  After Avery, I couldn't wear my rings until she was about 4 months old.  Doing much better!

Today we took Avery and Shane to get professional pictures made.  Here are the results...
