Marcus is 2 weeks old today!

Today Marcus is 2 weeks old and kickin' butt! Yesterday he had his wellness check up and now weighs 8 lb. 1.5 oz and is 20 1/2 inches tall. Dr. Addy is very happy with his progress as far as eating, sleeping, and growing into the handsome boy he is!
I was worried with his jaundice, but he's getting his color back really well. Marcus is able to lift his head higher and higher since his curiosity has kicked in. One thing he has no trouble doing is eating all the time! He seems to never get full so I'm giving him at least one bottle of formula a day to top him off. Dr. Addy says that's fine to do especially since he can start sleeping more at night rather than getting panicked to wake him up to feed.
Overall, Andy and I are so blessed and thankful at how much he is growing and how healthy he is. We expect to be attending future football games at the rate he's eating!
