Weight Check

There is a lot to update and a lot of photos to blog but my parents are taking it easy for one more day before Daddy starts back to work full time. So for today you get a neat picture of the pure torture my parents put me through. They were worried that I still wasn’t putting on the ounces so Daddy said “Let’s weight him!!”

Anyway… this was the result! (thanks Grandma Susie for documenting this moment!)

My “official” weight at the doctor yesterday was 9lbs 2oz! 🙂 I am back over my birth weight and chunking up nicely now! 🙂 Thanks Mommy for the milk!

Cuddle Time

This is from yesterday after I got home. See, I CAN open my eyes, although I prefer not to. The world is just a tad to bright for me still.

My big brother Breighton came home from Grandma and Grandpa’s house today. I really like him a lot. He keeps trying to feed me “Apple Jacks” and other food tid-bits. Mommy and Daddy keep reassuring Breighton that I love him sharing with me but I can choke VERY easily right now. He is an awesome big bro! He even knows my WHOLE name “Emmerson Carrington Reed” or “baby brother”.

Breighton is down for a nap so I opted for cuddle time with Mommy. We crashed on the sofa for a few hours of rest and relaxation.

I am a happy boy so far. I don’t open my eyes much unless Mommy wants a bit of rest. I don’t cry unless I have a burp or gas stuck in me. I am nursing very well. I keep pulling off my mittens and pulling my hat over my eyes, then I get upset. Well, I don’t have much to complain about so I have to fuss at my hat, right? I do NOT like to have my hat or mittens on while I nurse. I like it when Mommy rubs my head.

Day 3 and a happy boy!
