October 17

Getting Liam ready for his first little bath at home.






A sweet moment for Jeff and Calynn in the waiting room.
We had to take Liam to get his blood drawn again today because
his levels were too high on Saturday. They had a hard time
getting enough blood from his heel, but the results were good.
Showing that the levels had started going down.

Waiting patiently

April, Amy, and Sandile looking at Liam for the first time along
with Zithembe, Nelo and Thabi.

Taking a moment away from their snack to look at Liam again.

Amy and Calynn had a wonderful time together.
They played games like hide and seek, and Calynn
showered her with lots of hugs and kisses. She even
called Amy "mommy" to tease me. Maybe she figures if I
can have another child then she can have another mom!

Grandpa and Grandma came over later in the day

Group shot, I love Calynn's expression here.

Cuddled up under the beautiful star blanket
that his Aunt Tina made for him.


We took Liam back to the doctor today, he now weighs 6 pounds 13.5 ounces.
He had to get some blood drawn to check his jaundice level, and we will be back on Monday to have it checked again. We hope his levels start going down!

Sweet kiss for her brother

Showing her brother how we do "nosey, nosey".
(Which is what we call an Eskimo kiss around here)

Bopping her brother's nose

Loving every second of pushing her brother in the swing.


We took Liam to the doctor today and found out that he now weighs 6 pounds 10.5 ounces. He still has a slight case of jaundice that we will have to keep an eye on.
