2 Weeks in a Flash

A full two weeks has gone by since this sweet boy has been with us. It's crazy to think how fast these two weeks have gone by, and even though it is such a short amount of time, I feel like Levi has been with us for so long already. I do wish this time would slow down though. Newborns are the best. The newborn smell is so divine. They don't talk back. They give you the sweetest smiles in the middle of the night. They have thee most kissable checks ever. And they are so content just staring at you for hours. He truly is the sweetest baby and we just love him to pieces.
The kid is a tank though. At two weeks he now weighs 8 lbs 15 oz and I'm finally getting him to eat every three hrs instead of every two hours like he has been. He pretty much thinks, "If I'm awake, I should be eating!" He has been such a great sleeper and I have only had one night so far where he was fussy and wouldn't go to sleep. The dude hardly ever cries. It's more of a heavy breathing through his nose when he is starting to get hungry and wants to eat. 
Prepping for his first sponge bath.
 After his first real bath and rockin' his brothers hairdo.
 He's not a fan of being competley swaddled. He'll grunt and groan and wiggle around till his hands are free and up by his face.  

 His first Sunday at church was a success and he sure did look mighty handsome!


 My sweet Grandma who I love to pieces and admire so incredibly much was able to meet Levi for the first time. She has been fighting the battle with cancer and has been so strong throughout the whole process. It was a very sweet moment and I'm so grateful we were able to sit and visit with her.
