This morning while Clint was helping me get Ian ready, he was trying to laugh and smile for us! It was so cute, it just melted our hearts. That boy sure is getting us wrapped around his little tiny fingers!
Ian went to the peditrician this morning. He is doing great; he is now up to 11 pounds 10 1/2 ounces and 24 inches long. He also is gaining more ability to lift and control his head, and he can even push up on his little legs if you hold him. He had to get his first shots today, though, two in each leg. He got some lidocaine that kept him from feeling the needle stick, but it still hurt him when the vaccine went in. He cried something awful, poor little thing! :(
Today and again tomorrow the day care center has to close early because the church they rent space from is removing the steeple for needed repairs. So Ian came up to my office at 1 pm and stayed the rest of the day with me. He is also going to have to stay with me all week week after next, when the day care center is closed for employee training. I've been bringing some supplies up to the office with me for this kind of situation.
Ten things I never thought I would have in my office at work:
package of diapers
baby blanket
can of formula
bottle
baby wipes
spare baby socks
spare baby onesie
rattle
changing pad
sore nipple ointment
