He has a new biggest fan... his dog Hurlie. She insists on sleeping under the crib and squirms out every time the baby makes a sound to make sure we didn't miss it. Hurlie has been amazing with the new addition to her family and although very interested she has been pretty relaxed. We have not let her get too close to baby and have just let her sniff his toes but I am sure slowly she will play with him nicely when he is up and running around.
So far so good on the home front. The pediatrician put Bennett on a strict three hour eating schedule to ensure he is putting on some weight. So we have been up around the clock hanging out with him and sleeping in two hour windows.
He had his first out patient pediatrician appointment at the regular doctors office this week and definitely made himself memorable by peeing all over his Doctors shirt. Boys will be boys I guess.
Our little man is doing wonderful and has seemed to give us a false sense of parenthood by sleeping soundly most of the time and crying just a second right before he needs fed. I am sure this will quickly change as he approaches the time when he actually should be in the outside world. He is waking up more each day and hangs out with us just looking around and making funny faces.
