1 Month Old

Today Aiden is 1 month old. He has changed a lot over the past month but he still has his blue eyes and red hair. He is no where close to sleeping through the night but we hope that will change in the next few weeks. He is eating well and gaining weight. He is almost up to 10 lbs.

2 Weeks

Aiden has now passed his 2 week mark. He had his 2 week appointment on Monday and he is back up to 8 lbs 6 oz. We will go back in one more week to recheck his weight. They like newborns to be back at birth weight by 2 weeks and he was 6 oz shy. We took some time to take some pictures with Laura the other day and below is the result.

Special Delivery

UPS made a stop at our house today. Funny thing is we weren't expecting anything. To our suprise it was a gift from AAA where Laura works.

Aiden's jaundice has cleared up and he has started gaining weight. He is now burning through formula like crazy. We want to thank everyone for everything through this period of adjustment with the baby.

Blue light special!

We had our first followup appointment today and found out a couple things. He is now down to 8lbs from the initial 8lbs 12 oz. His level of jaundice has increased enough to require a billi light. The picture below is him using the billi light when we put him down to sleep this afternoon. We will try him on this for the next couple days and will followup with the pediatrician.
