The B Man

We love, love, love being parents! The last 11 days have definitely 100% changed our lives in every way imaginable. Brody is the sweetest most cutiest, snuggliest boy and we couldn't be more in love with him. He is doing an okay job at sleeping at night. He took his first bottle last night. We figured that if I pumped a bottle sometime during the day then Mike could take a shift in feeding during the night. So we both got a good 4 hour stretch of sleep because we both did a feeding. Mike said Brody loved the bottle and guzzled it down. I really like the freedom the pump allows us.

Brody has received LOTS of baths already! Yes, we know that he's not supposed to until his cord falls off, however, when he has pee in his hair he needs to be cleaned. We have a lot of learning to do when we take his diaper off. We are learning that he does a great job at aiming and firing :) Today I was changing his diaper and he began to poop with the diaper off. I was so focused on catching all the poop that I forgot to monitor his pee machine. Well he aimed for his face and a morning bath was quickly in the working.

Brody made his debut at church this last Sunday. Mike brought him up on stage to introduce him while doing the announcements. I don't think anyone heard announcements as they were gazing at Brody ;)

Yes, so true :) He finally has clothes that fit him. Friends of ours lent us their preemie clothes because the B man is too small for newborn clothes. It's so nice to dress him in clothes that fit!

He loved his tummy time. His head is getting stronger and stronger by the day. On this mat he's on there is a mirror that he loves looking at himself in.

He is my sweet snuggle bug!

Newest development tonight was the falling off of his cord! Mike was changing his diaper and found it hanging out in the diaper! :) He's growing up so quickly! I'm not sure if I'm ready.
