Baby Zach!
Ok…so I’ve been quiet for a while. Well, there has been a lot going on. On Tuesday, May 17th at 7:56am, Zachary Anthony Arthur was born at Sequoia Hospital via c-section. He weighed 8 lbs 4 oz and was 20″ long.
Steph was in the hospital until Saturday morning. I stayed at the hospital on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights to help out with diaper changes, crying and the like. Steph was ecstatic to get home since her hospital room, while private, was very small. Zach eats, on average, once every 3 to 4 hours. Sometimes he’ll go as long as 5 hours between feedings. He can take anywhere from 10 minutes to 90 minutes to fall asleep after feedings…those 90 minute fuss sessions usually happen in the middle of the night…argghh! Zach has had two pediatrician appointments, one for circumcision and the other a general check-up. He’s slowly gaining weight (he was last at 8 lbs 0 oz). I return to work on Monday, June 6th. Arggghhhh! I’m definitely not ready for that…I’d much rather hang with my son. Oh well.You can check out photos at paulandsteph.com
