Life on the Outside

I was looking at Wes just a while ago, and it dawned on me: he looks like a little boy. He has grown SO MUCH in the week we have been out of the hospital. Totally unbelievable. Everyday he is getting stronger and doing more. We've been working with him to roll over, spend time on his tummy and sit up...all things he was unable to do before because of the size of his abdomen. He can roll on his own and is pulling himself from a reclined position to sitting up in his carseat! You go W! He is still steady on his food intake: 2/3 by mouth, 1/3 at night via NGT. And he is slowly warming up to baby food! Some days he wants nothing to do with it, others he is opening wide!
He has also been jabbering up a storm in the last few days! And as always, ALL smiles and the sweetest baby you'll ever want to meet.

Getting some love from Cousin Allie.

We go in for our first doctor appt since discharge. I can't wait to report the stats on his hoss-liness.

News from the homefront:
Poor daddy was diagnosed with flu on Monday. Ick! He's been trying to take care of E and himself. He says that Emmy was super ticked with him because he has been no fun :-(
I talk to Emmy every night on "FaceTime". It is so wonderful to see her. She gets SO excited to see her little brother <3 Tonight, she had a stirring rendition of "I'm a little teapot". She owned that teapot! Go E!!
