2 Weeks Old

Dylan is two weeks old today and boy has he grown. Babies get an official weight and height check every Sunday night. Dylan is now 44 centimeters long and 3 lbs 11 ounces. He has grown an inch since birth and is up 2 ounces.  No wonder the preemie clothes we brought in seem too short for him. He's pretty much at the max height for preemie clothes. Dylan also seems to be awake now every three hours - in time for his cares and feeds. He'll stay awake for about 10 - 15 minutes and just kind of look around. It also works out great because we try to time our visits around the time of his cares so we can change his diaper, take his temperature and hold him.

We took Jacob to a place called Eagles Nest Indoor Playground. I thought we needed to do a special Jacob day since he's had to go to the hospital the last 3 days. Jacob seemed to have a blast. There are two separate play zones one for kids 3 and under and one for older kids. They also had the gymnasium open which had a bouncy house. I was hesitant to let Jacob jump in it at first because kids of all ages were jumping in the bouncy house.  I waited until there were only a few kids in the bouncy house and let Jacob go in. He loved it.  He jumped around for a while but then it seemed like 5-6 kids around the age of 9 all came into the bouncy house together. My poor baby was bounced all over since they jumped a lot harder and higher than he did. He eventually went into a corner and sat down because he was so scared. We pulled him out just in time because a few seconds after he came out two kids collided into each other. I could hear the heads hitting each other.
