Sometime early in the morning on 4/27/11(Wednesday), Brody's umbillical cord fell off. We were changing his diaper and it was stuck to his belly. I can not belive how fast it fell off. I thought it would take a week or longer! Yesterday we also took Brody back to the pediatrician for a follow-up weight check to make sure he was gaining back the weight he had lost. On Monday he was down to 6lbs 1ounce and 7 grams. On Wednesday he was back up to 6 pounds 5 ounces and 2 grams. They said by his 2 week appointment that he should be back to his birth weight but I know that he will have gained more by then. He's been eating almost every 2 hours so he will be a little fatty in no time!! Then maybe he will actually fit into his newborn clothes. I still can not get over what a tiny little turd he is.
After we left the appointment, we went back to Babies-R-Us to return his broken clock and got him a few new things. After that we ran over to Home Depot to return 3 outdoor hoses that Matt had bought. A day or 2 after he hooked them up outside they literally blew holes in them when we turned the faucets on. We also had to buy some ant spray and hornet killer. We came home, I feed Brody and then my mom and I went to get pedicures. It felt amazing!! After we left the nail salon we ran to the grocery store to get stuff to make spaghetti for dinner. Yesterday was a busy day but it was nice to get out. Time for me to get back to my little angel. He needs to be feed again!
