We're Getting Spoiled

Clayton and I have been really fortunate in the past few days to get in a lot of kangaroo care time. Prior to Thursday, we only had one opportunity to do it but have done it 3 times in the past 3 days. Aaron has been doing wonderful and we've been asking every time we visit. This afternoon was Clayton's turn. Aaron was all snuggly and warm against Clayton's chest for about an hour and a half while I read to them.

Clayton really enjoyed it, too. He couldn't help but fall asleep in the peacefulness of the moment. Of course, I was on cloud nine seeing my boys together like that!

This evening we made it in time for his bath, which Clayton gave him. When the nurse asked if we wanted to hold him, we asked about kangaroo care again...and Aaron got another hour of skin-to-skin time, this time with his mommy. When it was time to put him back in the house, he cried so loud. But as soon as his head hit the pillow, he was out like a light. So comfortable and sweet looking.

Oh, and tonight he weighed in at 1490 grams...that's 3lb 5oz!!! :)
