Caed is 2 weeks old today ... well, it will be official in exactly 10 more minutes. And what a lucky guy he is, he got to spend the entire morning at the pediatricians office for his 2-week check-up and weight check. Although he lost 11% of his weight the first week of his life, he has gradually gained the majority of it back. He weighted in at 8 pounds, 6 oz. today, only down 1 oz. from his birth weight. That puts him in the 45 percentile for his weight, but measuring in at 21 3/4 inches, he's in the 80 percentile for his length. (We certainly know who this long and slendor guy's daddy is :).
On another note, we took Caed for his first walk in the stroller last night, and boy does he really dig the outdoors. Brad found this out last week when he had to pace up and down the driveway at
3am to quiet him down, but to see him captivated in his stroller -- head cocked upward so that he could see ahead of him and up at the sky -- was really neat. We're going to try and make this a nightly routine.
