Two Weeks!

Crazy that this little guy is 2 weeks already! At his two week appointment he weighed in at 7 lbs 13 ozs. The Friday after he was born he had dropped down to 7 lbs 2 ozs so in a little over a week, he had picked up 11 ozs. They measured him at 20 inches so he "shrunk" an inch from when they measured him at the hospital.

Easton is a very chill laid back little guy as long as his belly is full. He is a great eater and man can he BELCH! His brother and sisters love him and there have been more than a few arguments over who gets to hold him.

He has a different look to him than the rest of the kids mainly because he has the Newton nose. His eyes and mouth are like Addie's and he has VERY LONG fingers and toes.

When he was born he wouldn't cry. The nurse was really concerned and was rubbing him hard and put an oxygen mask on him. My doctor was calm and said that he was pinking up and it was probably his "rapid ascent down the birth canal that left him speechless." (About 2 hours of labor total and my doctor was there for maybe 20 minutes.) He didn't cry at all, the nurse finally got a little whimper out of him and seemed satisfied. Ryan and I are hopeful that this is a good sign since Asher screamed forever when he was born. We are just hoping that he will not be as busy as his older brother, because honestly I don't think we have it in us to be able to handle another Asher.
We are very happy that this little man was sent to be part of our family and we are very excited to watch him grow.
