Here’s what I’ve been doing for the last few days. Not too many words necessary, though in a ‘life isn’t fair’ experience, I caught my first cold in over a year. So, in my fashionable blue mask I couldn’t kiss my new grandson. Or smell him. But I did get to hold him. A lot. For which I am grateful and thrilled. Okay, the rest in pictures.

If you’re curious and not a recent parent, what my son is doing with the purple glove is called glove feeding. Along side his finger is a slim tube with formula that Samuel ingests as he sucks on my son’s finger. It is a way of supplementing his calories until Sarah’s milk comes in. Samuel lost a little more weight than they like while still in the hospital. Other than that, though, he’s doing great. I love that it gives my son the feeding and bonding experience right now too.

So, hopefully back to more normal posting now. Yeah, I know, promises, promises. Thanks for sticking by me.
