And more pics

Look how comfy he is in the wonderful new sling from Mom-Mom Cheryl. We love it!

Hi everyone. One month old and counting. Louden lost a bit of weight this week, but not enough to be alarmed. We are going to supplement a bit until he gains a little more weight. Otherwise he is doing great. We had a wonderful visit with Mom-Mom Cheryl (or is it Nana, Grandmom, Babchie, we haven't decided yet). All votes appreciated, as well as alternatives. Gigi is out, as Grandmom Gerrie gets that honor. We also got to meet Aunt Bridget, which was a blast. We had our first real outing, with lunch and everything, and he was a real trooper (i.e slept through the whole thing). Here are more recent pics, and I will post more soon. Love to everyone

Gaining weight and filling out. Last visit was 8pounds one ounce. Now comes the challenging bit- we are stopping the supplements and going back to au natural. Hopefully he will continue to grow. Here are some new pics from valentine's day- you can tell how excited the dogs are to have their new brother at home...

Week two and we are hanging in there. We are still having to feed 12 of the 24 hours of the day to fatten Louden up, but it seems to be working. We have another doctor's appt tomorrow to see how we have done with our homework. He is such a mellow baby, and he is so pleasant. As tired as we are, we are having a blast with him ( case in point: John thinks it is hilarious when Louden pees on him during a diaper change). Our friend Amanda came over and took a few pics yesterday and we have posted a few of our faves (sorry, Mom, we tried to comb down the hair, but no luck). Keep posted for more pics...

more pics- getting cuter, but not any fatter, every day
