Mateus is 1 week old already! How quickly the week has gone by! During our 3 am feeding last night I was thinking back to this time last week when I FINALLY got the epidural with his arrival 3 hours later and now here we are a week later totally in awe and in love with our little guy. He's had a busy week of visiting with both sets of Grandparents and hanging out with Aunt Sara and Aunt Laura. He had his first walk in the park and visit to the pediatrician's. He has already surpassed his birth weight and now weighs just over 7 lbs. He was given high praise from the pediatrician for his ability to eat. We've learned that he LOVES his hands and uses them effectively to communicate his desire to eat (the SLP in me is very proud :-). Mateus is mastering control of his neck and loves to kick his legs whenever the opportunity arises. Gymnastics in his future?
We've really appreciated the interest and support, the check-ins, and the extra hands from Grandma and Grandpa to help us transition into parenthood this past week. Now the real test of adjusting to life as a three some.
