Newborn portraits

These are a few of Austin's newborn portraits.  










This is my first picture.  It was taken before I left the hospital.  I think Ozzie looks a lot like me.

Bubbie moves out

We recently discovered Ozzie (Bubbie) is milk/lactose intolerance and that he has reflux.  We were able to make changes to his formula and add a medication to get these conditions under control.  Once he was able to tolerate his food, he started growing like crazy & sleeping 5-7 hours a night.  We made the formula changes on a  Friday & by Wednesday, he had gained an entire pound!   This was triple what the doctor had wanted him to gain.  With his weight gain, he has also gained strength.  

We began to notice he was rocking the bassinet when he would move around, especially at night when he's fighting going to sleep.  Sadly, this means Ozzie has to move out of the bassinet and into his crib.   Friday night was the night we were going to move him into his own room.  However, we had to evacuate because of the wildfire burning near the house so that didn't happen.  So, tonight is the night.  After his bath and nightly bottle, Austin snuggled him up and got him sleepy before putting him to bed in his own room.  We checked the monitor to make sure it was working.  (I had Austin test it with me a few times just to make sure.)  I went in to check on him to make sure he was ok, this is what I found.

Looks like I was the only one nervous about Ozzie going to his own room.  He didn't even wake up from the flash of the camera.
