Andrew is doing great! It’s hard to believe that he will be five weeks old tomorrow. At our last Dr. appointment he weighed in at 6 pounds 7.5 ounces. His biliruben level had gone up from 10 to 11.5, so the Dr. had us put him on formula for 24 hours to drop it down again. Once it gets to 7 or 8 and stays there we will be in the clear. If it continues to go up we’ll have to visit a specialist. Tuesday we go back to have it checked again.
He is beginning to sleep for longer periods of time at night. Last night he got in a couple of four hour stretches – Pete and I were very thankful!
Below are some pictures of last night.

Laura what were you doing up at 6:41 am posting pictures on your blog? Oh that’s right – you have a baby now – no more sleeping in!!
Andrew is adorable and it sounds like he is doing great – he certainly is growing – almost 6 1/2pounds! And he looks so stron – lifting his head up. Keep updating – I love checking the blog to see him change and grow. Take Care, Randy & Patty
Hi Schneiders! I love the updates…especially Andrew vs. the Football. What a funny face he made as he powered the movie! I would love to see a family picture of all three of you together.
Love, Chris
