3.5 weeks

Christopher's belly button fell out. That sounds strange, doesn't it? Shouldn't it be "the rest of the cord fell out?" Oh well, as it is, he now has a real belly button. :)

We're still trying to get used to having this extra person in the house. Adding him into the routines is a challenge.

He's gained yet another pound (now 8lb 3oz) and is growing like a weed. He has graduated to the size 1 diapers and is starting to hold his head up. :)

He went to the doctor last week because of a low-grade fever and a suspicion of a urinary tract infection. It was the most horrible experience both he and I had to endure. They inserted a catheter (actually, two catheters - the first one didn't get anything) to retrieve some urine for tests - I *never* want to go through that again! The good news is that he doesn't have a UTI. It was just coincidence that he would cry and have a wet diaper. He goes back next week for his one month check up. I think he'll be getting a shot (or shots).... :(
