Today was Graham's first time to go to church. He enjoyed hearing about how children are like arrows in the hands of a warrior as he sat/slept in the family room with his Mimi. (Jason and I were serving in Lillie's class!) Then my sweet friend Emmy came over and brought an SNS which I believe stands for Supplemental Nursing System. Emmy is a lactation consultant and generously offered her expertise today as I am still making an effort to induce lactation. So today was Graham's first day to nurse (even though he was just getting formula through a tube, he still latched on!) Then Mimi and Aunt Mindy helped give Graham his first bath. We washed his hair over the sink and just washed one little body part at a time on a towel on the counter making sure not to get his little umbilical cord wet. I think Graham enjoyed it! Then tonight was Graham's first Foundation Group meeting! Our sweet newly married group came over for our regular Sunday meeting tonight and they all got to meet and hold Graham. This afternoon Jason switched the crib over from toddler height to baby height. So we swaddled Graham in the miracle blanket (as pictured!) and tonight will be his first night in the crib. Except that he already peed through the miracle blanket so it will still be his first attempt in the crib- just not in the miracle blanket!
So sweet and tiny! Our Miracle Blanket is washed and ready for Baby #2 to get here - but your blog entry makes me think I should get an extra! How did the second night of sleep go?
ReplyDeleteLast night he slept from 1am until I woke him up at 4:30am! Claire, I can't wait to hear that Baby #2 is here!!
