What I am really liking most about his routine is he has consistently been able to sleep a good 5 hour stretch at night then 3 hours, finally waking up around 8:00ish. I am so glad neither Lily nor Gunnar has made me wake up before 7:00AM on a daily basis. I am lucky there.
I took Gunnar to his 2 month appt last week. He was 22 1/2 inches long which is 75th percentile for boys. The nurse weighed him at 10# 12oz which is so false. That is part of the reason why I am switching him to Lily's pediatrician as soon as he is 3 months old. I know for a fact that two weeks ago Gunnar weighed 13 pounds on the electric scale at Lily's pedia's office. I didn't want to make a big deal about the nurse being wrong but I will be glad when I don't have to go to the office anymore. Gunnar got 3 shots too. I have never heard him cry like that. He was soo sad.
Gunnar is a mama's boy in the making I'm afraid. He loves in the wee hours of the morning to snuggle up to me and "nurse" until I wake up numb from lying in the same position to find out that an hour and a half has passed. Gunnar will sleep a lot longer in the morning too when he is in my bed rather than his crib. He is such a teddy bear though, and I love having him around to kiss his chubby cheeks and smell his sweet baby skin.

My baby is 10 weeks old today. Time flies, it really does. The days are long and the weeks are short. Gunnar is such a sweet little baby. Good thing he is easy going because Lily's energy and high pitched "Hi, Gunna, ahh Gunna, hugs...uhhh (tight squeeze)" while I am trying to feed him, he takes in stride. He has finally caught on to a routine. He is on the Babywise routine, which is such a relief because now he is eating about every 3 hours instead of every 2. He is also eating for about 10-15 minutes instead of 20-30 now too. It is pretty nice to get my life back instead of being tied to the couch every hour and a half.
