Hooray! I figured out how to make videos! Luckily it didn't take too long. Evan doesn't give me much of a chance to play around on the computer. Evan is a big fan of sucking on his hands. He just got his first pacifier on Thursday from the nurses at Fairview. Even in my belly his ultrasound pictures show him sucking on his thumb. Anyway, the morning after he was born the doctor swaddled him up tight after his exam, and he was a bit fussy because he couldn't get to his fingers. Here is a short video showing him getting his hand back. Make sure you have the sound turned on - that's the best part.
Oh, and since I figured out how to post videos I thought I would attach the video of Evan's birth, too. If you scroll down to the August 1st post I attached it to the middle of the page.
As of Thursday Evan has gained three pounds since birth. He weighed in at a whopping 11 lbs, 3 oz on 8.23.07. It is amazing to me that he is already four weeks old! I can't believe it! He has changed so much since last month. His sleeping schedule is still erratic and unstructured, but his eating habits have gotten much better since we introduced the pacifier on Thursday. Now he eats when he is hungry (about every 2-3 hours) instead of whenever he wants to suck on something (about every 30 minutes!) That has made a huge difference for the BOTH of us! I can actually get off the couch! Its wonderful. Oh, and he just started smiling at people two days ago. This whole "baby" thing is getting more and more fun by the day...
