Milestones For Baby Ben


Bottle Feeding like a Champ!

Ben started out the day in his incubator

By the end of the day he had graduated to an open crib...yay!

Today Ben got to get dressed in Newborn clothes for the 1st time

Cutest baby on the block!



Today was a big day for Ben. He started off the day by finishing his last of his photo-therapy (billy-ruben lights). Today they also tapered off his IV nutrition to nearly nothing and gradually increased his bottle feeds. He is almost to the point where they will take out the IV for good. He is eating more and more at every feeding and he gained .5 of an ounce today. YAY! By the end of the day he was ready to graduate from his incubator to a real crib which means that we now get to dress him in real clothes. It was so fun to dress him in an outfit for the first time. He absolutely drowns in the newborn clothes, but it it so cute and I am sure he will be fitting into them in no time. There is no possible way we could love this baby any more. He has stolen our hearts forever!
