September 15






We're still doing great, exhausted but in a good sort of way. My father and niece stopped by to visit yesterday. We had a doctor appointment this morning, Will got another hepatitis vaccination. Last week he weighed 6 lb 14 oz, this week he's up to 7 lb 11 oz! Guess he likes being home and being allowed to eat as much as he wants whenever he wants. The hospital was feeding him 75 CC every 4 hours, at home he's eating 40-80 every 2-3 hours so taking in quite a bit more over the space of a day. He's getting to be quite the budda baby! He's developed a really owie patch of diaper rash that bleeds sometimes, doctor said just keep doing what I'm doing (changing him as often as I can, about every 1-2 hours, washing with water twice/day, patting instead of wiping and applying a cream they gave me) and it should clear up. We have an appointment this afternoon to go follow up with the opthamologist for his ROP (eye problem), wish us luck that it's improved! We have to follow up with them every 2 weeks until the ROP is completely resolved. My Aunt Tam & Uncle Ef sent us a baby papasan bouncer and some rattles/teethers off my registry (thanks again guys!!) which Will has been loving. He's been refusing to sleep a lot of the time unless someone is holding him, but he'll often sleep in the papasan when he gets into that mood. He loves the bunny mobile thing too, he's not very visual and doesn't open his eyes that often, but he spent a good 20 minutes staring at the bunny the other day. Really not much else going on, doing good :)
