Growing Already!

I can't believe Caden is almost 2 weeks old. On the one hand, it feels like he's been here for a month since time seems to feel a lot slower when you are on less sleep! But at the same time, he still feels so brand new. He is growing so quickly already; we had our first doctors appointment on Tuesday, and our doctor told us we have an "A plus baby". He has already gained over a pound (he is now 8 lbs 8 oz.) and has grown to 21.5 inches (he was 20 inches when he was born). As my doctor told me, I must be feeding him "Hagen Daz milk". (I think she meant it as a compliment even though it makes me feel even more like a cow than I already do since I feel like I am breast feeding 24 hours a day). He is 95 percentile in height, and 75 percentile in weight, which means he is a tall little boy (not shocking when you look at my side of the family). He is sleeping pretty darn good for a newborn--last night I got about 5 hours of sleep in a row from 11pm-4am! It was amazing! I am quickly learning not to bank on this as a solidified routine, since it changes daily. But I am celebrating it for now!
Here are a few pictures of him since he is changing more every day!

Taking his first sponge bath

My sister, nephew and niece flew in from Oklahoma yesterday to spend the week here. I am excited to get to spend time with all of them this week! My sister has been so great about spending time with Caden (when she was here last week for his birth too) and helping out in so many ways with him. She actually baby sat him today when Jon and I took our first "outing together" in a while. We had to run a few errands and grabbed lunch--so romantic, I know. :) It was so nice to be able to get out, but felt the tension of having to get back since we haven't introduced a bottle to Caden yet. We plan on doing that in about a week, and then we will get to have a real date! We've had many offers for babysitters, so we plan on taking people up on those offers soon!
