Two week check up

Simon went in for his two week check up today (he's actually about 2.5 weeks old) and he weighs a whopping 9 lb 10 oz now!! His pediatrician made a joke about this being some kind of record weight gain. Makes me feel better about all the times he wakes up at night to eat and how much he eats because sometimes I feel like I can't keep up!

Speaking of waking up at night, Simon does seem to be more active at night (although his sleep/wake times still vary quite a bit from day to day) - he wakes up about every 2 hours at night to eat vs every 3 hours or so during the day. Hopefully we can start to reverse this and stretch his sleep to longer at night (4 hours sounds really nice right now, haha). It's really hard to keep him awake during the day, though.

This past weekend we had a ton of visitors - Jeff's family came to visit Friday/Saturday, and then on Sunday we had some college friends over in the morning and church friends in the evening. It was simultaneously fun and exhausting to have so many people visit...I'm glad to have some down time this week to decompress.

Here are some pictures of our little chubster:
