Ian's First Week Home

On the way home from the hospital

The Woman's Hospital of Texas has a great program where you can order a sibling cake for older children to help celebrate the birth of their new siblings.
Mason thoroughly enjoyed his cake!


He loves his brother very much too. He has done very well in adjusting to the new baby. He occasionally exhibits some jealous traits, but overall, he has done much better than I expected. The real test will be when Gran C leaves and he's got to share Mom's attention.


This past Friday morning Mason woke up with a runny nose and a fever. Fortunately, we were already heading to the pediatrician for Ian's newborn checkup so we got the doc to check Mason out as well. He was diagnosed with a cold, and we were advised to keep him away from the baby - a pretty difficult task.

Ian's check up went very well, he's almost back up to his birth weight but not quite. He goes back for a followup this week. He's doing great!
