We took Calin to the doctor on Wednesday for his 2 wk check up. He's sure a tiny little guy! But the doctor said Calin is doing really well, and here are some of the stats:
3 days - weight 7.6lbs 36th percentile
height 20" 54th percentile
17 days - weight 8.8lbs 45th percentile
height 20.5" 37th percentile
So he's gaining weight well, but not much height. And his head circumference is 14" which is in the 18th percentile. I guess he has a pretty tiny head. Maybe thats why he can hold it up really well?
A few things about Calin at 3 weeks:
- He loves going outside. For walks, or in the car to the grocery store, he's usually pretty happy when we're out and about.
- If he's crying and we've done all we can think of to calm him, we turn on the kitchen fan, and he stops instantly. He loves the sound of fans, the shower, vacuum, etc.
- Somedays he loves his paci, other days he wants nothing to do with it. But I think if he could figure out how to keep his fingers in his mouth, then he would be sucking them all day long every day.
- He loves laying on his playmat with all the bright colors. He especially likes the mirror that the giraffe holds
- He HATES having a wet diaper! He doesn't cry when it's poopy, just when it's wet.
- He love it when Jordan gives him baths, but cries every time I do.

That is so funny. Jordan hated baths. As soon as you took him out of the water he stopped crying. Such a cute grandson.

wow! I've never seen such a young baby smiling and staring right at someone like that for so long! He is such a cutie :)
And it's so fun that he has these little quirks and his personality is starting to come out.
So fun! I want to know how you are doing 3 weeks post-pardom?
I honestly didn't think that the video would be too entertaining (he's so young) but he turned out to be quiet the character!
