One Week Old

Grant is One Week Old! I can't believe it!  Every new parent says it, but I feel like he's been a part of our family forever. Even Hudson acts like he's been here a while.  He's such a wonderful big brother!

It has definitely been an adjustment - and having to re-learn all those new baby things hasn't been as easy as I thought.  Kevin and I sure forgot a lot!  But the key to Grant - FEED HIM!  He is awake like clockwork every 3 hours.  He even slept from midnight to 8 am Tuesday night!  What!?!?  But - with his jaundice, the docs want us to wake him at least every 4 to get him as much food possible to get rid of the bilirubin.

He is very alert and takes everything in!  He is even upping the amount of milk he takes in from 2 to 3 oz!  He weighed 8 lb 8 oz at birth; 7 lb 15 oz when we left the hospital; 8 lb 2 oz on Monday, 25th; 8 lb 4 oz today, 28th!

Mr Bright Eyes!

Big Brother {the first thing Hudson does after nap is check on "Baby Gwant"}
