Water/Circumcision

I know weird title, but I wanted to share both things.

1) We have come to realize that Jaren really likes the sound of water. When we are running warm water to warm the bottle he seems to really enjoy that. Then yesterday morning before we went in for his little boy appointment we gave him a bath and he absolutely loved it. He was wide awake through the whole thing and just looked around with his big blue eyes. Daddy did a good job giving him his bath.

2) His little boy appointment went REALLY WELL!!! Dr. Chavez gave him a sugar coated pacifier before he gave him the deadening shots and that was all she wrote. We re dipped his pacifier a couple of times, but other than that Jaren just laid there and took it like a man.

Mark and I both watched the procedure. Jaren got the plastybell. We both agreed it was NOT what we had pictured. There was a lot more cutting and blood than I thought there was going to be. There was nurse in training that came in to watch the procedure as well. HE and Mark both had sympathetic/painful faces as they watched. We are so proud of him and how good he did.

I didn't mention anything in the title about his Jaundice or Billirubin levels because the doctor was so happy with his weight and appearance that he didn't make them draw his blood!!!! :) :) Which made mommy and daddy REALLY happy.

We also wanted to thank Kameron for her delicious food. We were so full and it was really yummy. We are looking forward to dinner tonight as well. Marks sister Beth and her family are coming in from KC and bringing Fazzoli's. (Garlic bread sticks here I come)

  1. The water thing is nice to know- but he doesn't seem to ever need calming . . .

    You're brave watching the whole little boy surgery. I was with them if at all possible, but I couldn't look down for more than a quick glance.
