hanging out on the blanket Christine made him - so soft! thanks - he loves it! =)
It's hard to believe, but Jack's 5 months old today! He's doing great, and we're loving being his parents. =)
He's still on a very low amount of oxygen, but otherwise seems like a normal baby to us. He smiles all the time - mostly at us, but sometimes at Charlie (one of the cats), or at random things on the wall. He eats really well - about 5-6 ounces 5-6 times a day. And he sleeps great too! He's sleeping in his pack and play exclusively now, which means I'm getting to sleep in my bed again. And he goes anywhere from 6-11 hours between his last evening feeding (around midnight to 2am) to his first morning feeding. Which means that sometimes I get 8 or even 9 hours of sleep in a row! Amazing, considering that he's only 9 weeks adjusted. I'm almost afraid to put this out into the blogosphere - did I just jinx myself?? But we're just amazed by our little guy - pretty much always happy, and such a good baby. (As if there were such a thing as a "bad" baby!) He also naps pretty well too - several times a day for 30 minutes to an hour and a half.
I know all this might change as he gets a little older and realizes that it's more fun to stay awake, but we're definitely enjoying how easy he is right now. =)

Oh, that little guy is precious! They are so much fun!
Yes, it's nice when it's so "easy," but even when it's not...he'll be learning so much and having so many firsts! I enjoyed reading to him while I was there.....keep reading to him for me! I loved doing that for Aidan at that age. =) Well, I still do....and he now reads to me. =)
