Action packed weekend

Mom and Dad gave Eric a bath for the first time on Saturday (I don't have any pictures of the occasion because my camera was out of batteries). Eric really seemed to like it despite being with amateurs. Joe, his nurse, gave us a good step by step instruction. Eric was pretty pleased and only let out one cry when I didn't bundle him up fast enough.

Eric also took a big step forward in his feeding this weekend. Starting at 11:00pm Saturday he has decided he really likes drinking from the bottle and doing better coordinating his sucking, swallowing and breathing. He needs to be fully awake to have enough energy but he is really starting to figure this out. He is also eating whenever he wants instead of on a strict schedule every 3 hours with the gavage feeding. We will see how he likes it.

We had a nice Thanksgiving with lots of yummy food and Aaron and I even got out for a little exercise. We also took our first trip to Babys R Us. It sure is hard to sift through all the stuff you really don't need to find the things you do. We are just doing the math on how many diapers he goes through in a day and it is a lot. We figured out that we need to buy them by the case. I heard about these flushable diapers that I am going to check out see what that is all about. Aaron doesn't believe they are for real.
