Sweet Samuel!

As of today, Samuel weighs 3 lbs 12 oz. I'm not sure if his length has changed. He is almost 2 weeks old. Everyday he continues to amaze us. He's a strong little boy. His feedings have increased to 30ml, a full ounce. I talked to the doctor today about bottle feedings. They should start very soon. Samuel is cuter and cuter every time I see him. It is so hard to believe he is mine. Nick and I want him at home with us so bad, but we want him to stay in the NICU as long as he needs to be there. I have not been driving...I'm not supposed to for two weeks. Well my two week mark comes tomorrow. I drove to the library here in Arlington this afternoon. It was very surreal being back in the driver's seat. My little trip was only about 2 miles round trip. I will try to drive a longer distance tomorrow or Saturday. I have my 1st shower on Saturday...if I feel brave on Saturday, maybe I'll drive myself! :)

He always looks so big in your new pictures until I see him next to you or your hand! But he looks really good! :) Such a big boy...
