Week 12 – Day 6

Just another day, nothing huge to report. Dealing with mucous management to keep little ones comfortable, Brendan had a little bloody nose for a while too. I stepped up the saline mists and he doesn’t even seem to mind me doing it, I think it feels better.
Timing today has been off so our hands have been full non-stop. Some days definitely have a better rhythm than others.

Thanks very much Amber from the mom’s club for stopping by with dinner, it looks awesome. She even made cheddar biscuits. yummm

This picture may look a lot like yesterday’s! Sleep time is the only time I could pick up the camera.

Brendan has spent a lot of time today being held. He is allowed tummy time now, but we support him so that he isn’t lying on his ostomy bag. Being on his tummy helps him with his congestion a bit.
I finally got him comfortable enough to go to bed. I am proud to say that he has had no mitts on all day and has left his face pretty much alone.

Sleeping on his side for a while

This is a video I took the night before last. Whenever the boys are awake and calm, I put them together. I had no idea this night that they would be happy to lie there and stare at each other for two solid hours. Trevor even went well past his normal feeding time. They made noises and pawed at each other and just stared and were as content as could be from 10PM until almost midnight. I was stuck supervising when I desperately wanted to sleep, but I couldn’t break them up, it was too cute.

All the crackling sound is Trevor kicking wildly and crunching a package of wipes that I left in the bed after changing Brendan.

Now off for a nap while the boys are sleeping at the same time!
