Swaddling blankets are the shiz-it.
I was gung ho to use the standard square blanket for swaddling Colin. Shannon found some custom shaped pieces of fabric with velcro. Those things keep Colin locked up in blanket goodness. Although I do feel bad since they kinda remind me of baby straight jackets. But it keeps him feeling all warm and secure so I can’t complain much.
Had the first Dr’s appt today. All is well, except that we need to continue waiting for the fluid to go down in his penis area before we can get him circumsized. Was nice to hear the Dr reaffirm that it was ok to let Colin cry for a few moments before rushing to pick him up. Might make night times better. We shall see.
Found a couple of websites that sell snarky baby onesies. Need to find a few to buy that express the inner geek in him that I will draw out of him as he gets older. Speaking of inner geek. Time to try out the ability to include an image within the post.
Holding him one armed while he just quietly stared at everyone.
