Chuckle

Yesterday at lunch time, I got to see Brinson practicing her laugh....now sometimes her whole body moves like a chuckle. I watched her tickle herself with her own laugh. This is an amazing process to watch a baby grow. I am so glad that Lisa and I were privileged enough to be parents. Even though we have been through a lot our journey has only begun and I can say I defintely am loving every second of it.


Whose mouth opens wider?

Laugh!

Brinson had her first laugh today. Mommy called me at work and said she had laughed in her sleep, well now she is laughing while awake.


If you've noticed her NG tube dressings on her face have been looking pretty shabby....that's because our wonderful little Princess pulls it out almost daily. Her cheeks are raw and so we do what we can to "keep the cheekpad on" for as long as possible.

Bath time is fun time!





Yummy!

Brinson only got to wear this outfit a short time before getting it all dirty while eating with Mommy.

Baby gut!

Uncle Mike visits

Uncle Mike comes over for this past Sunday. He was very excited about his new job that starts on November 17th and his upcoming vacation (between the transition on jobs) to the Caymans.

Anyways he wanted to share his excitement with us. Brinson was pleased to have him over.








BTW Grandma went to see Grandfather this weekend in Trinidad. She stopped by early Saturday for a visit as well. I snapped a few pics for them.

Out of town

Good day folks, I was out of town for several days last week, but as you can see from the previous posts Brinson did not stop growing, eating, crying and making all of us happy.

These days we are not really comfortable having her sleep in her crib. So she is sleeping in the living room. Mommy takes the first shift and I wake her at 330am for the second shift. The reason for the concern is she is very spit up prone every since we have shifted from continuous feed to bottle/syringe. She is being forced to have 75cc in her gut in 1 hour vs the 3 hours before the surgery.

The good news is she is getting better and better. She can do 75cc several feedings in a row sometimes and doing most of it by bottle/ But other times she gets behind and is not able to drink by bottle or syringe the 75cc. Just too tired and/or full.

After loosing 1lb during the week in the hospital for surgery, Brinson has now gained all of it back.

Updates will go back to normal.....

Eating and Sleeping



The syringe in the photo is used for whatever she does not finish by bottle.
