I guess some shirts do lie bc he is not loud... Yet! He really is a good baby. He has some tummy issues which make him fuss but I don't blame him. It makes me feel so bad for him.

Due date
This is the week Wesley was to be born. Amazing this beautiful healthy boy has been here over 3 months and he wasn't supposed to make an appearance until now. Questions come to mind are 1) if he were born today, would he have been put up for adoption? 2) would his birth parents still have picked us or would another had already come along? 3) would my bond to him be as strong if I hadn't known him for so long? And there are many more.

Motherhood... Pure bliss!
Well it's been almost 3 weeks of bliss! I never thought I would enjoy a little one so much.
He is a great baby. Sleeps at night and we wake him to eat, hardly fusses and when he does it's because his tummy hurts. The dogs all are good with him and Pixel loves him. She was the one I was worried the most about bc she usually chases children and latches on to their pants as they are running away.
Wesley makes the most adorable sounds. I don't know if it is a coo or humming but he does it a lot before he sleeps. I have read that cooing comes later in development so I'm not sure. It's hard to predict when certain milestones will happen with him since he is a micro preemie. I'm ready for him to be able to hold his head up and hold a bottle but I prob have a few months before then. We had a newborn photoshoot with a professional newborn photographer and we are waiting for the images. The sneak peak was this one:
I am so anxious to see the rest!
We had out own mini photo shoot at home too and got some classic poses done:
I can't get over how adorable and perfect he is. We are so blessed to be chosen for this precious man!
As I'm writing this he is laying in my lap just smiling away. I often wonder what makes him smile. They used to say it was gas but that has been proven to be false. He is a pretty bad stinker though lol.
Wesley's eyes were rechecked a week after we were home and they are improving. We go again in a week to see if all resolved.
I bought a used baby swing from the consignment shop and he loves it. I just love to see a big grin on his face as he swings!
Tonight he was being extra adorable making faces while I was holding him:
