Finally Home

Dade, Clint and I finally spent our first night at home, Sunday. It went really well.  I was so exhausted.  Clint took care of Dade for a good chunk of the evening (from like 8:30 until 2am).  I was finally able to catch up on some much needed sleep.  When Dade went to sleep, he slept most of the night. I think he was tired to from the long weekend.

Yesterday we went to the pediatrician.  As of yesterday Dade weighed 8lbs 8oz and 20.75 inches long.  Even though he's 1.5 oz over his birth weight, he's gained a lot since we were discharged Friday.  He eats about every 2.5 hours.  Sometimes its 2 oz. sometimes its 3 oz.  Just depends.  Last night was a long night.  He was up about every two hours or so.  Right now he's lying next to me staring at me while I type.

I had not been using the sleep positioner that my mom got for us, until last night.  Normally he stretches  out and doesn't move.  However last night, he rolled onto his right side.  As excited that I was that he rolled to his side, I grabbed the positioner, and promptly put him in it.  He seemed to like it, because it was snug.  He seems to like his little chair that his GG "Great Grandma" gave him.  It vibrates and plays music.

Well, I'd like to continue this post, but someone just made a really stinky diaper, so I better go take care of that!
