ZZZZZ

He can sleep where ever we put him. That is one of the positive out comes of Duncan's stay in the NICU-he can sleep through noise.

Big Boy

My little baby is getting so BIG! I can't believe this one time 1 lb 12oz baby is now almost 18 lbs. Duncan is doing so well. I can't wait to take him to the pulmanologist in March, I'll find out when he can start going out of the house. I have a lot of plans for this guy this summer. I want to take him to the Wild Life Zoo, the aquarium, to the swimming pool- Oh, I have plans and I have things I want to do with this little guy.

On another note- a dear friend of mine from work is expecting her first baby and unfortunately things are not going as well as they had hoped- please pray for her and her baby they really need them.

Be Mine

I love his too, even the slobbery ones!

See, I like to roll around

I like to smile for the camera

I love these pants. His Aunt Elisabeth sent these to him and I was so excited to discover that they matched the onesie I bought him perfectly. So cute.

Hope everyone has a nice Valentines Day.

All the sweetness I need

I'm sitting at home today, just me and Duncan. He is getting so big. He is almost 18lbs. He wants to sit up all the time. He likes to roll around to get places and he loves toys. He also LOVES Mickey Mouse, his toes, Nana & Papa. He smiles and laughs and he is starting to understand when he doesn't know or recognize someone. He started eating rice cereal, didn't do well on that-it plugged him up bad. So we switched to Oatmeal cereal and he does better on that. We just have to give him prune juice to help keep things flowing. He is doing great and in a couple of months he will be free to go out of the house!! He will also be turning 1 in May and I just can't believe what a wonderful blessing he has been to me. How can you not love that face!?

Super Boys

Before Duncan was born, I bought this bib for him. He had it with him in the hospital sometimes.

For Justin's Birthday his mom made him this apron for when he grills.

And here they are together. Duncan's little belly button is sticking out-it's so cute.

Rice Cereal

I took Duncan to the Dr. yesterday, he has been cranky lately and I just wanted to make sure his ears were okay and that his lungs were doing okay as well. He has a stuffy nose so he has to have saline sprayed in his nose at least 5x's a day. Fun! Anyway, he said that we can start giving him rice cereal once a day. So today we tried. Also at the Dr. they weighed him and he is 17lbs. 2oz. I think he is starting to teeth, he is drooling all over the place and he chews on everything, hands, bib, toys. It all goes to his mouth for him to chew on. But the Dr. said he didn't see or think a tooth was near. I don't know though, it could be in a couple more months.

Here I am in my Bumbo chair with tray ready to try this stuff. I am a little Prince Charming by the way. (He totally has my grandpa's ears)

I was watching mommy mix the cereal with my milk-looks neat.I like the spoon.

Here it comes. This could be interesting.

And it tastes okay. Not too bad, but not loving it.

He did pretty good. He was more interested in the spoon than anything else. I think it will get better with time.

Christmas again

Here he is in his cute onsie that his Aunt Suzi got him. He looked so cute in it. Look at those chins.

Had to get a picture of him with Santa, so he is bigger than this Santa-he liked it.

In other Duncan news, he is doing fantastic. He is growing in all directions. He is 15lbs. 9oz. and 27 1/2 in. long. His doctors can't believe he was a 25 week preemie. A few weeks ago he started grabbing his toes when he was laying down. Then he started rolling from side to side and last night he rolled over from his back onto his belly!! He had been going from belly to back, but this one is new and he likes it. He is talking up a storm and loves his mommy and daddy. He also loves his Papa. My dad helps my mom watch him twice a week and he loves to watch basketball with papa.
