3 weeks old!

Today our little Zane is 3 weeks old!  We got to go for a check up too and I was so pleased.  He is a very healthy baby.  He weighs 9 pounds, 13 ounces, and in the past two weeks, he's grown a whole inch!  He is 22 1/2 inches long!  I didn't know that was possible, but I guess it is.  Everything is looking good on him.  I am learning so much.  I didn't have a clue about babies, but our pediatrician is so nice and talked about several changes that may happen in the next couple weeks so that I wouldn't be alarmed.  Zane did okay for some of the time, and he cried rather loudly for the rest of the time.  We don't have to go back until he's two months old! Oh, and the best news of all is that I don't have to wake him to eat anymore!!!!  I don't know if that will change how many times I have to get up at night, but I sure am happy I don't have to set my alarm.

We also had our first solo outing to Kohls and Walmart today.  He slept the whole time except when we were coming home.  I was happy that I made it through.  It's a little intimidating-hopefully it gets easier.  It is so hot out there, so I'm happy to stay home.
