Mr. Popularity

We had so many visitors the first week or so of Little Dude's life.
 Here are some pictures from that first week home with mom and dad!

 Ethan and his Great-Grandpa Page. He was giving Ethan some good advice and making all of us laugh. :] 

 Ethan and his Great-Grandma Page (and half of Aunt Camilla) 

 Troy's brothers Kyle and Jeff came up and spent the whole day with us and Little man. We wore them out. 

 Ethan and Grandma Becky 

 Grandpa Craig stopped by for a few minutes on his way down from Bear Lake. 

Tori and Ethan! :] 

At our 2 day check up Ethan was Jaundice. We had him re-tested and luckily he was low enough (but still pretty high) to not have to sit under the purple UV lamps.  Instead, he gets 15 minutes of glorious sunshine. :] 

My mom came up this past weekend and got us up and out of the house, concurring our fears of leaving. :] We went to Angie's for dinner, and he slept the whole time.  We also walked around the Farmer's Market, went shopping and spent plenty of Grandpa's money. :] It was so fun to have her and my sister here helping and it made me relax a lot. Thanks mom/grandma! :] 


Little Dude is a pretty good sleeper. (Knock on wood.) He will go anywhere from 2-4 hours between feedings, and just fall back asleep after (most of the time.) A week from the night/morning he was born, he even slept 6 whole hours!! He has given us a couple of bad nights though and Dad needed to recover. :]


We are so happy he is here and can't believe it has only been just over a week.  We feel like we have known him forever.  Probably from the lack of sleep. :] After he was born the doctor did one more x-ray on his kidney to see if the problem they saw pre-birth was still there. It was. They discovered that his kidney has two ureters.  For now he is on Amoxicillin to keep any kidney/bladder infections away and we will see a urologist at 6 weeks. He is such a good baby, and we love every day with him!
