I can't believe Joshua is already 2 weeks old today. Time seems to be flying by. (Today was actually supposed to be Joshua's due date). Josh is still doing his normal routine - eating, sleeping, and pooping. That is Josh's world at age 2 weeks. Josh moves around a lot and is very squirmy, so we are thinking that he may roll over at a pretty young age. Who knows. He seems to be a relatively good baby and not fuss too much. (Knock on wood). Yet, he doesn't always want to go right back to bed after his 3am feeding. Mommy sure does. We are still learning how to calm him relatively quickly. It always seems that he fusses at the wrong time. Is there ever a right time?
Josh had a nice visit with his grandparents from Florida for the week. He enjoyed having them there and all the attention. Grandmom and Grandpop Uhr also enjoyed meeting their grandson and spending a lot of quality time with him. We know it was hard for them to leave. Yom Kippur was during their visit, and we had a nice Break the Fast dinner over at Grandmom and Grandpop Eichenholz's house. It was Josh's first outing out of the house besides a doctor's visit. (It was only 3 minutes away). Soon enough, Josh will get a little bigger and be able to really venture out into the real world. Mom is looking forward to taking him on her shopping trips.
At Joshua's 2 week doctor visit all went well. He now weighs 6 lbs 3 oz and is 19 1/4 inches long. The doctor said that the goal at the 2 week visit is to get his weight up to his birth weight. He surpassed it by 2 ounces so breast feeding is going well. Josh is a very hungry boy. He seems to eat every 2-3 hours with times where he eats, gets changed, and then wants to eat again.
