And I am sooo excited! Mommy is waiting on a call from Daddy about when she will be here! I am going to get lots of extra snuggles! So much fun!! More soon! Love,Sebastian

I think I have now fixed the ability to leave comments. For whatever reason, setting it to “members” does not mean everyone who is invited, only Alan and I. It should now be set to those with google accounts. I do have the option to leave it open for anyone, but I am leary of… Continue reading comments fixed??

The kitties, Prudence and Jhana don’t seem to mind that I am here, and they have left me alone for the most part. Prudence however, decided that the nursing pillow is the perfect place to take a cat nap. I don’t mind too much, she keeps me cozy and warm. I think she really only… Continue reading Sharing Lap Space

Yesterday the doctor came to my room and told my Mommy and I that I was getting my “walking papers” and that I would get to go home! Mommy called Daddy at work and he came to pick us both up. My first car ride was really great! I was all snuggly in my car… Continue reading Vroom Vroom

I had my first tubby time tonight. I wasn’t to thrilled about being immersed in water, as you can see, but my Daddy meant well…. I’m not so sure the tub was ergonomically correct, as I kept sliding down into the water. I would have preferred to a whirlpool, but I guess beggars can’t be… Continue reading Tubby Time!!!!

Alan and I arrived at the hospital today for Sebastian’s 9am feeding, prepared to spend the day with him before going home for yet another night. The great thing about getting to the hospital at 9am is it means the pediatricians for the NICU and ISCU (infant special care unit) are making their rounds, so… Continue reading Exciting news!!

My daddy has been working hard all week, and we haven’t had much time together. Kathleen, the nice nurse that took care of me yesterday and today told my Mommy about a zer0-gravity chair that they have in the NICU that is great for naps! After my Mommy fed me this afternoon, Daddy and I… Continue reading Nap time with Daddy

Now that I am off of my oxygen, Mommy breast feds me when she is at the hospital visiting with me (usually 3-4 feedings) I am catching on like a champ and its really great snuggle time! AND I can now regulate my own temperature so I have been upgraded to a bed without a… Continue reading Breast is best…

It’s been such an exciting few days! The doctors said I didn’t need my central lines anymore, so my belly button finally gets to heal (the cord was removed when I was just a day old!) Aside from not having to additional wires attached to me, I also get to have skin to skin contact… Continue reading Snow and Skin to Skin

A quick post… Mommy is up late due to her breast pumping schedule and wanted to share these pictures. When Mommy and Daddy went to see my doctor in the NICU tonight, the nice nurse watching me asked if they wanted to hold me! It was my first time getting baby snuggles! I got to… Continue reading Snuggles with Mommy and Daddy
