Our Little Bundle of Joy goes in for his 2 week check up on Tuesday. He seems to be adjusting well to life outside of the womb, though Amy and I are sometimes worried about if we are doing things right.
I've gone back to work, partial days, and have brought work home so that I don't get behind. We start a new semester next week and there are lots of tasks to get done.
Amy's mom left yesterday, but it seems like we've been struggling on our own for a lot longer than that. Last night was our first night alone with the little guy. We tried putting him in the bassinet, but he freaked out and didn't go to sleep until 1:30 in the morning. We are exploring options to get him out of our bed as soon as possible. We tried putting him in the bassinet this afternoon for a nap, while he was sleeping, but he quickly woke up and started crying. He likes the warmth of bodies and being held, which allows no rest for mommy and daddy.
Though there seems to be gloom and doom in this blog entry, don't worry, Amy and I do realize he is only 2 weeks old, and things won't be perfect. He is our special little guy and we love him so, even if he keeps us on our toes!
