He is little... weighs about 5 pounds.
He has dark hair and is oh so handsome.
Know who I'm talkin about????
I'll admit it, I really wanted to have another girl this time around. Simply because they were all gonna be so close in age that I thought it would just be easier and more fun to throw another girl into the mix. So when we found out we were having a boy, I was excited... but its not what I wanted.
Someone told me when I was pregnant with Madelynn that they had hoped I was having a boy because the relationship between a boy and his momma is a special one. I never really thought anything of it at the time other than I will have a special relationship with my baby no matter what it is.... but oh my soul, this boy has stolen my heart and he can do whatever he wants with it! I already feel such a specialness between him and I. He is definitely gonna be a momma's boy. Don't get me wrong, I love both my girls to pieces and wouldn't trade them for 2 stinky ol' boys. Maybe if you have a boy you know what I am talking about.
Anyways... Stetson is still doing fan-tastic. Guess I need to catch up on here. He had a couple episodes of sleep apnea, which is where he forgets to breath while he is sleeping. It is a common thing on preemies simply because they just haven't figured all that hard stuff yet. He is ready to come home other than that. The Dr. wanted him to go 2 days without having an episode... and guess what?? He made it!!! That is if he makes it through tonight without doing it. Which I have faith that he is gonna do great!!! So there is talk that he'll be able to come home tomorrow, but there is also the chance that I will have to stay 24 hours with him in the hospital before he can come home. We won't know until the morning when the Dr. calls me. So I'm gonna be bright eyed and awaiting a phone call at 7 in the mornin. His feedings are going great. He is a little piggy.
The last night I was in the hospital, the girls were able to come up and meet Stetson. It went quite well I think. It was late and bed time for the both of them so we had a little bit of crankiness going on. Madelynn really didn't want anything to do with him at first. Once we got the bottle out and asked her to feed him, that was right up her alley and she stood there and fed him the whole thing. It was so sweet. She already is a great big sister to Payton, but I have a feeling she is going to be a little mommy to Stetson.
Payton was extremely interested in him and just stared at him just like that ^^ the whole time she reached out and touched him gently a couple of times. I'll be interested to see what she does when he gets here.
