We went to his 2 week doctor's appointment today. I know, holy crap Landon is 2 weeks old! It still feels like he was born yesterday. Everything is going well. After we left the hospital Landon's weight had dropped to 5 lbs 8 oz, but now he is up to 6 lbs 11.75 oz. He was surprisingly still the same length. It definitely feels like he is longer than he was born. It makes me think they probably didn't measure quite accurate when he was born but then again I couldn't tell you since I'm just going off of feel from holding and seeing him.
He's not a fan of the doctor since they have to check him out in just his diaper. He hates being undressed or having his clothes changed. He's content just laying in an outfit he has peed all over. Good news everything was looking good with Landon and we don't have another visit until he over 2 months old, which feels like it will be forever but at the same time this first 2 weeks has flown by so I'm sure it will be here before we know it.
We are doing ok. I am definitely not sleeping as much as I would like too. I thought I could operate on a few hours sleep like I did in college, but apparently getting good sleep since being in the work force has really diminished that ability. Christi is doing much better physically. She is healing well and moving around incredibly good. You wouldn't think she had major surgery 2 weeks ago. Her blood pressure is still a little high, but other than that she is doing good. We are both still getting used to having a child. Sometimes you wake up and you wonder what is going on and then you realize oh yeah, that's Landon. I know, it sounds bad, but your brain isn't used to it yet. It's something we have to get used too. We also have to get used to that life still goes on. It really feels like the world stopped, but since I have been back at work I know it definitely hasn't. Thankfully everyone there has been incredibly supportive and have made it very easy for me to do what I need to do in order to care for Landon and Christi.
It's getting time for me to go to bed. I need to catch up on some sleep. Hope everyone has a great week.
