Hey there Boy Boy!
We survived another week! Even though you kept us awake all through the night (Daddy says you are on SG time -- wide awake in the middle of the night, and sleeping throughout the day), we are still so happy to have you. Your many facial expressions have provided great entertainment for us. And both Mommy and Daddy have been trying to capture them on film. Hopefully you won't mistaken the cameras for us next time.
You umbilical cord fell off right at the two-week mark. We brought you back to the PD to check you jaundice levels yesterday. When the nurse told us it increased to 14, Mommy's heart just sank, worried that you will have to go through another bout of tests. Fortunately, Dr J thinks it is not a problem, since you are pooping, peeing and eating fine. She is happy with your weight gain too (7 pounds 2 oz now!). And she is awfully patient with explaining and reassuring Daddy and Mommy. Seems like the blood type mismatch between us (Mine's O+, yours is B+) means that it will take some time for the jaundice to resolve. So we will have to get through this with lots of patience... and sunlight.

What a handsome boy! His features are so defined. Hey don't worry, he looks really strong and healthy. He's so cute sleeping with his hands tucked under his head.
