Week 35 – Day 2

Lots of brothers together time today. Trevor is still jealous and yells a lot. Not cries.. yells a very angry loud yell when he feels like he is not getting enough attention or if he gets bored!

Brendan had a long play time on the floor. There was no good picture of them sitting up together, lots of blurry ones because they were moving so much!

They had some more low key tummy time.

Trevor sees the suction tubes by Brendan’s face all the time and wanted in on the “fun”. Brendan actually needed suctioning while they were lying next to each other. The loud noise scared Trevor and he started to cry really hard. The sound of Trevor crying upset Brendan and he started to cry really hard. It was cute and sad at the same time to see them having a cry together.

While Trevor took a nap, Brendan got to visit outer space

Then they spent time in Brendan’s crib together watching the light up mobile

And then the slapping started

Trevor needed a reminder about who is the big brother

(And Happy Birthday to Aunt Shannon, we can’t wait to see you again!)

Week 35 – Day 1

Trevor sat in his high chair this morning looking less than hungry.

It was a battle within, he couldn’t decide whether or to be happy or sad. He either is carrying his crabby mirror baby around inside, or he is just a great actor!

He played with the Calamari Twins

Until Gramma started putting things on his head

Crabby baby had to come out again!

Trevor had a pretty rough day. We talked to his doctor about changing his diet up again to see if we can’t keep that kid feeling comfortable. It will take a few days to sort out, but hopefully the smiling little angel Trevor will win over crabby baby.

Brendan had a fantastic day. It had a really rough start early on and a mini melt down around dinner time but all afternoon he was just the happiest, most spastic kicking silly baby ever. He ran at least one marathon with his little legs moving.
He got to play with the Twin Captains too.

Both of his bottom teeth are just a couple thin layers of skin away from being officially in. He bites his fingers a lot!

Both boys are in bed now, we hope that Trevor makes it past 5am tomorrow morning and that Brendan is more kind to his poor nurse and gives her a break too!

Week 34 – Day 7

Since Trevor got up at 5:15am for his breakfast and bath, Gramma missed it and had to bathe Brendan instead!

He listened intently to the rules of playing the turtle kicking game. He booted the turtles off of the sink divider for the first time today. Trevor would be proud.

Trevor is doing his own new things now

He rocks back and forth so far… we are going to have trouble soon, he will get it figured out!

Brendan got all packed up to go to see his pediatrician

He was in the Spongebob themed room in the doctor’s office today. The doctor was very pleased with how well he is doing at home. Brendan was supposed to get immunizations today, but he was spared at the last minute! The pediatrician did not want to have any possible side effects interfere with Brendan’s Friday appointment with the GI surgeon. He is having a consult about his ostomy reversal so we want no setbacks! Brendan will get his shots next week!

Trevor stayed home and played with Gramma.
“I don’t know how I got both Captains on my swing while Brendan was away!”

The boys did have some play time together. Brendan loves for Trevor to visit his crib.
