Wow, well where to begin! Today was quite a busy day. While Angie prepared for her discharge (yay), Jimbo made a trip over to see our son to begin James Xavier’s third day. While yesterday we informed you that Jimmy was banned from his binky, we’re happy to announce today, that he’s been a good baby and is able to use it once again. The doctors added an air tube that helps Jimmy remember to take his breaths while using his binky. . . Great Job little man! The amazing part here is Jimmy actually will hold the binky in his mouth.
We were also informed today that Jimmy’s lab results came back clean, and he shouldn’t need antibiotics for now. The one thing that still amazes me more and more is how attentive he is when Angie is holding him. He can’t take his eye’s off of his Mommy’s beautiful face :).
The other ‘neat’ thing was that he actually did a pretty good “Number 2” while Angie was changing him (sorry mommy). That was reassuring for his parents 😉
A few other details on the day — we learned that Jimmy’s weight has started to go on the up-and-up and he’s back at his original birth weight. Tonight, Jimmy got to spend lot’s of cuddle time with his mommy and daddy. Also, he was quite excited to meet his Aunt Abbie! I think he’s going to guard his sun glasses closely, Aunt Abbie seemed to have her eye on his cool shades.
So, as for this hungry little fellow, he is now eating 14cc’s of food. That is double from where he was yesterday morning. Keep up the good work Jimmy!
Last but certainly not least was Angie breaking the news to Dunder about the new baby that will be coming home. The Hospital had given us Jimmy’s hat that he wore on Day 1, and tonight the Nurse was nice to have supplied us with one of Jimmy’s blankets. Needless to say, Dunder went crazy sniffing his new baby Jimmy’s blanket, and his tail was wagging in excitement. I think he was in awe over the blanket for a few minutes at least, sniffing and licking, but gentle all at the same time.
Welp, time for Angie and Jimbo to catch some shut eye!
