Update on the boys…
Backing up a tad… I forgot to mention an update on Dylan’s 2 week doctor visit last week. He is just growing like a little weed already… as of last week he weighed 9 pounds and had grown to 21 1/2 inches tall. Most of the time when you see them every day, you don’t seem to notice them growing… but we have really noticed him getting bigger…. way too fast for me! Everything else at the visit checked out perfectly. We will not go back until his 8 week visit! We are extremely thankful to have two beautiful/handsome 
and healthy little boys!
Yesterday was Drew’s Halloween parade & party at school. We all had such a nice time. Drew was a “Fire Chief”… he said he is going to drive the fire truck. He is totally obsessed with fire trucks! I decided to dress Dylan in his costume to go to Drew’s party and he was a Giraffe.
I took Drew into school yesterday late since I wanted to see the parade… so Dylan and I followed the line of children into each classroom as Drew and all of his friends showed all the other kids their costumes. Then in the afternoon, David came and we were all at the party. It was a fun day and Drew is very excited to go
trick or treating on Saturday!
As of today… we are falling into our new routine very well. We are getting up about twice a night to feed him and during the day he can go for about 3 hours at a time before the next feeding. I am cautiously getting out and about now and are enjoying the bonding time we have during the day. He continues to be such a good baby… and certainly seems to be loving being a “cuddle bug”… Drew was always like that and continues to be (of course… when he wants to) A difference we have noticed between the two boys is that Dylan doesn’t care quite as much about being swaddled. I’d say about 30-40% of the time he just wants to be left alone. With Drew, it was absolutely necessary that he wanted to be swaddled when he was sleeping or napping. As long as Dylan sleeps… that is all we care about right now!
