ONE WEEK OLD.
 A little about BRENDON at one week old:

 :: Rarely cries - only when a cold wipe touches his bum to be changed. When he wakes up and is hungry, he'll fuss for a min but no cries.
:: Nurses VERY well. Eats every 3 hours during the day, last night during the night I only fed him twice, once he went 4 hours and once 5 hours in between feedings. Let's hope he keeps this up. No complaints about nursing, 
other than let's just say he has one heck of a suck. OUCH!
:: Very content just laying by himself.
:: He poops and pees more than most newborns, would be my guess. I guess it's a blessing he has a VERY good digestive system.
:: He seems to like his sponge bath. LOVES getting his head rinsed under the tap.
:: Has VERY long hands/fingers/feet/toes
:: Sleeps most sound when swaddled.
:: Loves his hands by his face.
 Tubby time / Grandpa caught his smiling from a gas bubble I'm sure.
 The many faces of Brendon....I love the pucker face.
 THE FEET
 Doesn't mind being in his carseat, at least for now - knock on wood!

 We are in absolute HEAVEN having my parents here, taking wonderful care of us all. They adore their grandkids. 
I LOVE seeing them create strong relationships with my children.
THANK YOU MOM AND DAD.
I owe you forever.
