Here he is this morning before getting his "mini" bath and putting on his outfit for the day. I love these pajamas!! Katie and Brian gave him these when they came to visit. He looks adorable in them. Kirk always says he looks like a monk! Too cute!
We haven't been able to give him a full bath yet because he still had his umbilical cord. So, every morning I wash him off with a wash cloth before getting him dressed. Needless to say, he doesn't really like it...at all! But, being his mommy, I even think his cry face is cute so here it is...
I really hate for him to cry and he only cries when he's hungry or getting wiped off, but at least he looks cute doing it!
And of course, I had to take his two week picture by his frog. He looks so big compared to his one week picture! I love to watch him grow, but he's just doing it way too fast!
At our dr's appt today, they said he weighs 9 lbs 4 oz. So he's gained 11 oz in 11 days, which they were really happy about. I guess that means feeding is going well!! Yeah! We were worried about that because last week I got mastitis. If you haven't ever had it, be thankful!! It makes you feel like you have the flu and it hurts to nurse. Luckily, my mom was here to help out while I rested. But I'm feeling 10 times better this week!!
At two weeks old, McCoy is a very content baby. He loves riding in the car, sitting in his bouncy seat, or being held. He's got big blue eyes! I also think he's very laid-back.
Today his umbilical cord fell out. So, that means tonight, he's getting a real bath!! Kirk and I are so excited and we really hope he likes it. We'll get pictures up as soon as we can!!!

How did the bath go? I'm so glad to hear you are feeling better. God bless your mom's heart for being there and supporting you. There is no other way to go about it than with mom's help! : ) My mom is my BEST friend in the whole wide world.
He looks TOO cute in that outfit. I CRACKED UP laughing that Kirk called him a "monk"!! He already looks so different from 1 1/2 weeks ago! Glad you are feeling better.
That cry face is adorable!!! I can't wait to see pics of his first bath!
He is growing so fast! He is absolutely adorable! I am your new blog stalker because I am constantly searching for new McCoy pictures to get my fix in.
