Eating update

Drew did good eating this first 24 hours home. Dr said to try to feed him more over the weekend but he was ok with what he had eaten. He is only eating about 45ml per feeding, but he's eating more often than every 3 hours so it's making up for the extra. Also his bili was down and fine so no worries there! We will take him Monday morning to Dr Rose so lets just hope he keeps up the good eating (and maybe does a little better) over the weekend!

He is so adorable. I love this teenie tiny newborn stage. This was one of my main worries when he was in the nicu, was that he would grow too big before he came home! They grow sooo fast. I love this stage when they are just so fragile. His little knees are to DIE for and his fuzzy shoulders and face, i just want to eat him up! Even his little bum is SOOOO cute! (i'm sure he will LOVE this post in 13 years!) I love when he is hungry and he is searching for food like a little mouse. His little lips and face are so precious. He is super long! He had an outfit on that fit great other than his legs stuck out, he was ready for the flood! This must be from his tall daddy! ;) knowing he is my last is making me sad. We are making the most of every little moment with him. I actually enjoyed being up with him in the night, just the 2 of us. Cause we know that doesn't happen often! His little floppy head and sleepy eyes were the highlight of the midnight hours!! Kurt did take some turns, thank goodness for him! Ok i've rambled long enough. Have a great weekend, i know we will :)
