I can't believe Wesley is already one week old today. He must have decided he was big stuff and celebrated by staying awake for his longest streak yet. Adalynn was so excited to see her little brother's eyes for longer than a split second. Wesley had his one week follow-up appoinment with the pediatrician this morning. He's gained back two of the ounces that he lost prior to leaving the hospital. And even though he's one month premature, he is already on the growth charts in the 10th percentile for weight and 25th percentile for height. (We say "already" because it took a few months before Adalynn made it on the growth chart). The doctor isn't concerned about Wesley's conehead at all and thinks he has a "beautiful" head shape..... um, okay. But I suppose she sees more babies than we do so we should take her word for it. After the doctor's visit, we took Wesley on his first shopping trip to Target. He was a good boy and never fussed in the store or in the car. That's another difference between him and Adalynn - she hated to be in a car seat. But this was Wesley's first excursion so we can't assume he will always be this well-behaved. Here are some pictures from his first week at home......
