Charlie Week 1

Highlights of the week:  After our somewhat extended hospital stay, it was just nice to get home with Charlie and be back with Lucy...(or so we thought).  Unfortunately, Lucy temporarily became a "monster":  

Charlie stuck with a eat every 1-2 hours diet plan and I have quickly become re-acquainted with lack of sleep (and a very important reason for maternity leave).   

Changes: Charlie had his 5 day check up, and is showing excellent growth.  He weighed in at 6lbs 14 oz.  The goal is to be back to birth weight by 2 weeks; so he will have no problem with that.  

Sleep: As I mentioned, Charlie is waking every 1-2 hours.  The upside is that he quickly falls asleep after eating.

Looking forward to:
  Settling into a schedule will be great.
