We can't believe two weeks have already passed! Justin and I are having so much fun with Zach. He's very good natured- we still see that peaceful alertness he had at birth: after he eats he likes to just look around for a while. Zachary is also a pretty good sleeper- going 3.5 hours between feedings and sometimes going right to sleep afterward. Justin and Zach have enjoyed numerous sun rises together- but with a late morning nap, Justin is doing fine. Zach is also a very good/eager eater. Its hard to explain how wonderful he is withou sounding crazy!
Here are some photo updates:
First car ride- Zach doesn't like being squished into his car seat, but he enjoys the car ride once he's in.
Zach and Justin hanging out with the dogs- Belle mostly ignores him (but will stand guard while I feed him), Pete watches over Zach's crib as he sleeps. Both dogs seem fine with the new addition- and Zach is totally peaceful and doesn't mind when they bark!
First bath- he enjoys the warm water, and loves the cuddly towel afterward! And we love bathing him!
Just cuddling- Zach is a very sweet and happy baby. Right now we're just enjoying each moment with this tiny guy! We're enjoyed all the visitors and showers of support- Zach is very lucky to share in our great friends and family. Justin's parents see Zach online every few days, my parents stop by to see him regularly (and feed us! We all celebrated his two week birthday together), and Alex comes over whenever he's not at the hospital (he's become an expert at soothing Zach to sleep).
Zach is now 6lbs 10 oz, so our doctor has us feeding him extra to plump up a bit. He's very healthy and doing well. (We took a feeding break in the middle of this post- and now Zach is happy and cuddling with his daddy). What fun!!
Here's what we know about Zachary so far:
likes: cuddling, his special hawiian pacifier, warm baths, warm towels, anything warm, milk!, holding hands, sitting up on clean clothes and furniture, making faces, waking daddy at 3 a.m. to hang out, hopefully mommy and daddy (can't tell yet!)
hates: getting naked to be changed, pooping (this seems to terrify him), sleeping not in someones arms (ok, he just prefers being held), not sure about the baby swing yet

My sister installed the web cam software on my mom's laptop, so now we can see Ava on the screen, and talk to her, too. Isn't it a great invention?!
It looks like the pups are enjoying life with Zach :) And so are Zach's mommy and daddy!! He's adorable every time I see a photo of him. Thanks for the update, Lindsay and Justin!
OH MY GOD!!! He is soooo beautiful! You guys are so lucky!! I hope you're enjoying it as much as it sounds like you are!
