In his big boy seat


We are now one day away. Miles passed one of the last hurdles, the car seat test. He liked it so much in fact that instead of staying in it for the requisite 1 hour, he slept soundly for two and a half before it was time to change him. The last thing is for Miles to get circumcised which will happen some time today. We opted not to have a bris for him as he won't be able to be around many people for a few months and will do a naming ceremony when he is 6 months corrected age (based on his actual due date of February 4th which would make him minus 4 weeks old right now.)

Tonight, Dave and I will room-in with Miles at the hospital. He will be taken off all the monitors - hooray! - and the three of us will be together for once! It will be up to us to wake him up for his night time feedings and changings but have the benefit of a nurse nearby in case there is an issue. Tomorrow, he will get one last exam and then we will take him home by noon time.

San Francisco friends - we'd love for you to come meet our little guy but don't even think about it if your nose is as much as running! As strong as he is to us, remember he is still minus four weeks old!
