2 weeks old

so how did we celebrate silas' 2 weeks old birthday you ask?  with another doctor appointment!  this was just to our sweet pediatrician and i was curious to see how much he weighed now.  7 pounds 5 ounces!  hooray!  we're finally getting this little guy to gain some weight!

we also celebrated by giving him a bath tonight.  look at his sweet little face!

this was a huge improvement over his first bath, which was this past saturday.  this is what he thought of that!

totally not a fan and he let us know by pooping all over the place at the very end.  so much for getting clean, ha!  we figure this will make for a great story when he is older. :)

silas at 2 weeks you are still stealing our hearts.  your skin is still peeling but getting better.  we've settled into a feeding groove which makes your mom so happy.  you are a laid back baby and i think we are more laid back parents this time around.  you are more aware of your surroundings and you are staying awake for longer periods of time.  i swear you can see the ceiling fan because you are mesmerized by it.  your older brothers are ready for you to be awake more and eat less so they can play with you more...it is super sweet to see the love they have for you.  in fact, when noodle realized he missed going to a birthday party this past weekend, burrito said to him, "would you rather go to a party or have a baby brother?"  they both clearly felt like a baby brother was way better! :)  you are not a fan of the carseat and neither am i because you look way to tiny to be strapped all in there.  you love to sleep in your swing but we are going to work on sleeping in other places this week too.

we love you silas!
