I wanted to get more of this footage but I ran out of memory, nuts, he was really going at it! I was so excited and I called Derrick Sr. to tell him that he screamed and he said "yea, he was doing that all night last night while you were at work"!!! :( (cry,cry, sniffle, sniffle) He forgot to tell me, but we're still gona count this as his first scream for mommy!

His first basketball game!

Derrick and I took him to our neice's basketball game! It was kinda loud but he did o.k. I did have to nurse him right then and there, but we only did one side, mom hasn't mastered the whole nursing in public thing yet!



Back to work!

Mommy went back work and Daddy brought him up to see me and nurse! Man that time at home with him went by fast!







Dr. Rhodes-Dekko says he's doing just fine! Junior weighs 11lbs and is 23 inches long! He is in the 85-90% for his height and weight on the preemie charts, and 3-5% on the newborn charts!! Hey, at least he made it! They adjust his age 3 months, and will continue to do so untill age 2 to 2 1/2 or so! So they will always use the preemie charts untill then! He cried a big cry at first with his shots, but then calmed down pretty well! As you can see, he is doing amazing, he doesn't even look like a preemie born at 27 6/7 weeks!!! He is our miracle!
