Devin's Antics


Well, so far so good :) Everything seems to be going pretty well! Devin has been sleeping between 3-4 hours at a time during the night-so we really only have to wake up twice to take care of him. And he eats so much better than Aiden did! It would take us every bit of an hour to get Boo to eat on ounce-this one can take 2 1/2 ounces in 20 min! As Micah has said...this one will eat us out of house and home :) He's just my angel baby.

But he's also a stink pot! Sunday he rolled over. Yes I said he rolled over! Who does that at 6 days old? Grammy had him on his tummy for some tummy time, and before you know it, he had pushed himself over onto his back! And I do wake up every once in awhile to see how he's doing thru the night, and I usually find him a couple inches away from where I had laid him down. I'm going to have to keep my eye on this one!

Then yesterday we took him back to the hospital to have his newborn shots taken. Unfortunately because he was taken to the NICU we had to cancel his original appointment, and then we wanted to wait a few days after his little peepee got cut. So we got there early because he was due to eat at the time of his appointment, and the photographer was already there waiting. So we tried right away to get the shot, and he was too fussy. So I went ahead and started feeding him. I stopped to burp him and have them try taking the picture again, and he spit up all over me! (he doesn't spit up very often). I left to go to the bathroom and clean up-luckily had a shirt on under the ruined one. During that time, Micah decided to change him to help him feel more comfortable. As I'm walking back into the room, Micah and Devin are back in the pose for the picture, and Devin pees all over Micah through his diaper!! The photographer was cracking up-couldn't believe that he was giving us such a hard time! Especially since he's so good normally :) Well, we finally decided to give the kid a break and take a look at what we had shot-and we found a great picture. As soon as I had taken him to look at the photos he was fine. I guess he's just a little camera shy right now-we'll have to work on that ;)

The pictures should be ready in 10 days, and I can't wait because it is just precious...
But that's my little stink pot :)

Fun. James rolled over that early too and he kept doing it, he did not like his tummy. We thought he was going to do everything early from that time on, but boy were we wrong.

sorry that I haven't visited. I have been really sick. I also hurt my back and have had a hard time getting around. Now today I feel a little better and I have to get this crazy mess of a house back in order. Glad your mom is taking care of you because I sure haven't been able to. sorry.

It's amazing that even at such a young age they can set the pace for the rest of their lives. Watch out Mom and Dad, he may just give you a run for your money! Especially when he tries to keep up with Aiden. He has a great mentor!
