Bennett seems to love to stick out his tongue... we have always thought it was super cute, but it seems that he may be sticking it out because of some throat and mouth issues. The reason we are concerned is our Dr. thinks it may be causing some breathing obstruction problems. We have met with an ear nose throat Dr. at Childrens Hospital in Seattle and he thinks that surgery to change the back of his mouth may be our best option. We have a few more tests and screening to do but it looks like our little man may have to spend a couple more days in the hospital around May or June. We will keep everyone updated but the Dr. thinks he will be good as new minus his cute little tongue hanging out.
Bennett loves Dr. Suess. His Grandma Ruth has bought him some of his mommy's favorite from when she was little like, Green Eggs and Ham & One Fish Two Fish. We read them a ton and he loves to listen to all the ryhming words.
We have just been enjoying all the parts of having a 2 1/2 month old at home. He is awake a ton now, holds his head up and seems to make all these new sounds and Joel swears he is going to pop out his first words at any second, haha. He is really acting somewhere inbetween a 2 1/2 month old and a baby that is just 3 weeks past his due date... just where he needs to be.
He even thought it was pretty funny when he had poopy in tub tonight... so cute if it wasnt in the big bathtub with mom... yuck!
