It's hard to believe but our little bundle is already 2 weeks old?!? Actually almost 2 1/2 weeks. Seems like yesterday when the impendinging cold front and full moon prompted the little guy to make an appearance contrary to Mom's plans. Anyhow two week birthdays mean its time to go see Dr. Cheng again. Grant is doing very well. What a blessing he is. He may only be 2 weeks young but already is developing his own unique personality. He absolutely hates a dirty diaper yet hates being changed even more. He is starting to track especially mom. He is a great eater and likes his paci. He LOVES his swing but doesn't care to be swaddled. He is content most of the time (although starting to have fussy periods) but when he is unhappy he has a high pitched shrill cry. The night he was born the nurses would come and shut our door when he cried exclaiming your baby is loud;)
Big sister or "sissy" as she's named herself absolutely adores her bubba. She even refers to herself in the 3rd person lol. "Mommy watch sissy run." She loves to help get things for "her baby" and sings to him when he cries. She can be heard saying " it's okay Grant, don't cry Grant sissy's here." She is also jealous especially at night so we' ve been dealing with a lot of night awakenings and some behavior issues. Overall the transition from 3 to 4 of us is going well, though we could all use more sleep of course. We can't wait for everyone to meet our little guy!
