2 week check up

Cael's 2 week check up went well today. The jaundice is "nearly gone" (according to Dr. Berry), and everything is looking really good. Cael now weighs 8 lbs 6 oz and is 20.5" long...he certainly is a good eater!! I had a blood pressure check today. Good news...my blood pressure is back to normal!! (110/68) Of course this is with the help of BP medications, but I guess you got to do what you got to do sometimes.

My mom is here for a few days, which will be nice...I was actually able to lay down and take a little nap this afternoon. Tomorrow we are planning to venture out to the grocery store (I know...some outing, huh?), then to attempt to get his newborn pictures taken. We will see if my whole scheme will work and we will get both accomplished during the same outing...I will report back!!

Enjoy some recent pictures of Cael!

Cael is absolutely perfect! I just love those eyes and that sweet little face. I can't wait to meet him in person. Good luck with your outing to the grocery store and having his pictures taken. May I suggest getting the pictures done first? That usually works out best for Karson, but it's just a suggestion. I can't wait to see them. If you get a chance, post a picture of Cael's nursery. I'm anxious to see it.

Love,
Kelly

Cael looks like such a little man! He's getting bigger by the day. Tell him that Aunt Erin says to let you and Jonathan sleep tonight. Maybe we'll get together in March on a beach in...(fill in the blank with someplace warm).
