Week Five: Oct 21st - Oct 27th


Oct 21st
Today was pretty quiet except for a visit to Brandeis.  We went to a staff meeting and passed you around.

Oct 22nd
This pumpkin hat was knit for you by Mumma.  I actually had to make two for you because the first one was too big.  Today we went to Unica to visit Mumma’s co-workers.  We’ll have to go back though because many people were out of the office.
Oct 23rd
You ran errands for a while with Mumma and Daddy and in the evening we had a visit from Uncle Andrew and Aunt Gentry.  Uncle Andrew asked, “Can I hold him?  I haven’t held him yet today.”  There’s no doubt- he’s smitten.  Uncle Andrew and Aunt Gentry also brought our cats (Brit and Tony) back home.  The cats were a little unsure of you but well behaved.

Oct 24th
Tonight we gathered at West Street (Nana and Granpa’s house) to celebrate all of the fall birthdays.  Everyone must enjoy spending time with you because there were many gifts of babysitting that were given.
Oct 25th
Mumma’s Aunt Cathrine and Uncle Bob were on their way to NJ from their house in Maine and they were stopping to visit Mimi.  Mimi called to see if we could stop by so that they could meet you.  We were happy to oblige!  This was also Mumma’s first day alone with you because Daddy had to go back to work.
Oct 26th
Nurse Lora came by today and you’re now up to 5lbs, 15oz.  Other than that it was a pretty quiet day at home.  You really are a very good baby.  In the evening you went with Mumma to a wake for Nana’s Aunty Anne who had recently passed away.  All of the Rosseels who were there loved getting to meet you.
Oct 27th
Today was a long day of doctor’s visits.  We started with a  visit to the pediatrician in the morning.  You weighed 5lbs, 15oz by their scale.  Then we went off to Children’s.  By their scale you were 6lbs and either 1 or 2 ounces- I don’t remember which.  Mumma met with lactation to work on your breastfeeding.  You also had an EKG and an ECHO.  Your cardiologist says everything looks normal for you.
