1 Week Old- Collyn

Little Collyn is one week old today. I can't believe it. This first week went a lot faster than the first week with Alden. He had quite a busy week this week. Here are some updates on Collyn:

GROWTH: Weight: 6 lbs 7 oz (At his appointment last Tuesday. We have another appointment on the 22nd to see how much he weighs.) Height: 19 1/2 inches (Again, from his doctors appointment)

EATING: Collyn is such a good nurser. Alden didn't like breastfeeding, so by this point with Alden he was already supplemented by formula. Collyn doesn't like the bottle. One night we tried to feed him formula and he refused the bottle. Collyn eats about every 2-3 hours for about 15-20 minutes each time.

CLOTHING: Newborn size. They are a little big on him but I don't want to buy premie sizes because he is starting to grow.

DIAPERS: Newborn Size

SLEEP: Collyn is actually a pretty good sleeper. Fingers crossed it stays that way. He gets up 2-3 times per night to eat and falls back to sleep. He sleeps quite a bit during the day. He pretty much eats and then goes back to sleep. He will look around for about a half hour at a time a few times a day, but mostly sleeps.

DEVELOPMENT: Nothing too much new. He is just eating, sleeping and pooping. His eyes are starting to focus a little better when he looks up at me while I hold him.

ACTIVITIES: Monday afternoon Collyn came home. Wednesday morning Collyn had his first doctors appointment. He has been to Papa and Grams (Stacy's parents) house, Grandma and Grandpa Haines (Lyndon's parents) house, Aunt Susan and Uncle Cody's house, he went to church this Sunday and spent the morning in the nursery with Alden and Momma. He also went to a party for MTE Communications (Where Papa and Aunt Susan work.
