for what my Dade did today! I really should have taken a picture, because it was a sight to see. Let me set the stage. For those of you that have been to my house, you know the layout of the living room. There I was sitting on the love seat burping Dade over my left shoulder. He doesn't give up burps very easily, so when he does burp, we praise him like non other. He did a cute little burp, so I praised him. Next thing I know I hear a juice wet burp and then feel something running down my back. I turn and look at the couch behind me and it's covered in baby sip up. I stood up and looked at the couch it was all over the back of the couch, down into the couch behind the seat cushion, and all down the back of my night-gown. I just looked at Dade who had this cute innocent look on his face. I of course start to laugh because it was perfect timing. I didn't have the burp rag on me, not like it would have helped, and I had just said to him, I need to get you ready for the doctor. He made sure that I had to get cleaned up too.
The doctor's appointment went well. He now weighs 9lbs 5ozs (yes, he's a growing boy), and is 22 inches long. I believe his head measure at 34cm. The doctor (Trites), said that he was doing really well. Obviously, he's gaining weight like non-other. He goes back when he's two months. That's when he gets his shots. I feel bad, because Clint will have to take him without me. I know he's not going to be a happy baby when he leaves the office that day. We know that Dade has a healthy "stream" of pee. He decided to pee not once, not twice, but three times today at the office. Of course it was his response to get warm. He was naked on the table. I saw it coming to, that's the funny thing. I just held me hand over the top of him so that it wouldn't arch to his face. Of course add something wet to being cold, and that just adds to an even unhappier baby. The nurse cleaned up the table while he was on the scale, but oh no, he had to mark that spot too, because again with the peeing. Again I just held my hand over the top of him. Clint just laughed and handed me baby wipes to clean up. He was happy to get a diaper on and be held close to me until the doctor came in.
He's been a bit on the fussy side today. Wants to be held all the time. Which I can understand, but at the same time he has to learn to sleep somewhere besides my arms or anyone's arms for that matter. He's in a light sleep right now. Hoping that he wakes up soon though so that I can keep him awake until 10 or so. If I can do that then he'll sleep until 2 (fingers crossed). This morning we slept until 7 after going to sleep around 2:30.
I set up the little play gym that we got him this afternoon. I took so pictures of him lying underneath the toys, plus a video. I've uploaded them to my Picaso Web Gallery. If you look on my link section I've added a link to my gallery. Check it often, because I take LOTS of pictures of my handsome man.
That's all for now!
