The Feed Zone

Traci's parents were here to see Miles come into the world. Her dad left after the weekend, but Judy is here and has been whipping us into parental shape. We have learned much about how to care for Miles from her- I confess that my burp technique has come light years from last week's try.

So far Miles has been sleeping about 20 hours a day, which has not been leaving much room to get acquainted much.

Usually its at 3am or so when his eyes are wide open, and he stares at me in the low light while we try to down another bottle and burp up any air that may make its way down the lungs. His little gasps, gurgles and coos are enough to make even the hardest heart melt.

Traci is very lucky to be able to see him during the day. Today was peed on for the first time while trying to change his diaper. In fact, he was able to hit both Traci and Judy, total humor!

I have a feeling there will be many more "fountains" in your future.
