My hiccuping little peanut...

James' new vibrating seat--he loves it!

It's sort of late (okay, it just feels late after a day of lots of activity) to be 'blogging', but I'm waiting for my little James to stop hiccuping so I can feed him one last time before bedtime. This is the second time he's gotten hiccups this evening. Poor little guy. His hiccups usually last from 10 up to 20 minutes at a time! They shake his whole body. He doesn't seem to mind the first few minutes but then gets frustrated. Especially when he's hungry!

Yesterday was a big day for James! We went to the doctor's office for his 'two-week' check up, although he's closer to two and a half weeks. While there his umbilical cord stump fell off! I was so proud of him!! I know it's silly to be proud of him for that, but I was. And the scale indeed proved that my little guy is growing...he's already 8 pounds, 6.5 ounces! That's over a pound gained since he left the hospital. He's doing well enough that I'm able to let him sleep as long as he'd like at night, without waking him for a feeding! Last night he went 7 hours between feedings...we're trying not to expect that every night, but we'll take it while it lasts!

Okay, the hiccups are over and James is getting verrrrry impatient! Goodnight!
