Nolan was a little jaundiced for the first few weeks, we took him to the doctor everyday for the first several days. Everytime he would get a prick on his heal to test his jaundice levels. They were never so elevated that he needed to be under the light, but it was kinda hard to see him cry everyday.
So we continued taking him to the river, and on short walks.
And we would lay him in the sunlight
which he didn't seem to mind.
We would also weigh him, thanks to the scale Gramma Janet got for us. We really wanted to make sure this little guy was getting enough to eat and growing strong.
Jonathan liked to bottle feed him sometimes. Look how tiny he was in his arms.
This is our first trip into town. Gramma Janet and I went to the farmers market and she bought me some beautiful flowers. There is a baby in there somewhere. :)
Thank you to Gramma Janet for coming and staying with us the third week of Nolan's life. She really gave me the confidence to be where I am today. Sometimes you just need somebody to tell it like it is.
