One Month old!

ONe MOnTh OlD

Today, our Bausten turned one month old! It really amazes me how fast time has flown. Our little guy is getting so big! So much has happened since he was born but, we have enjoyed every minute of our new bigger family!! Bausten is a dream baby he never hardly fusses at all!! In fact he only squeaks when he is hungry, Bausten sleeps wonderfully and although he is still waking up every 3 hours to eat at night and he had a little spell of being WIDE awake in the EARLY morning hours we are Turing that around:) He is patient and just so sweet!! His cheeks are getting so chunky making it hard to resist kissing his little face!
Lyndon, has been so great with Bausten. He loves him so much and is always concerned when Bausten is in a different room or when his Binky has fallen out. Lyndon, loves holding him and singing Edelweiss to him and giving him LOTS of kisses! Tyler and I are adjusting pretty well to a life with two and I have been so thankful for a husband who has taken over my role of getting Lyndon breakfast in the early morning so I can get a little more sleep in:) We have already taken the boys to the Strawberry Days parade and up to Idaho Falls for a family funeral.
We feel so blessed to have such a sweet little spirit come to our family and are enjoying every minute of him and h is brother!

Happy Father's Day

Last week was Father's Day and I had to share how good of a Father Ty is to our boy's! Lyndon loves his daddy, he follows him everywhere! They love to wrestle and romp around but Lyndon also loves when Ty sings to him and reads stories. Bausten loves curling up and snuggling with his Daddy, already he understands who he is and quiets right down when Ty holds him. Ty really loves the boys and I am truly blessed to have a husband that truly loves his family. Thanks Honey for all you do!! Happy Father's Day!!

The Best Big Brother!

When we brought Bausten home form the Hospital we were worried that Lyndon would be really hard to manage and not like Bausten but, we were completely wrong. Lyndon has been the best big brother!! He absoulutlyadores Bausten and wants to hold him all the time. In fact he the only time he gets upset is when someone else is holding Bausten because he wants a turn! Lyndon helps with everypart of taking care of Bausten and he is sure to have lots and lots of kisses involved!!

Jaundice

This week we have been making a lot of visits to the Doctor's for Bausten. When we left the hospital he was a little jaundice and so we made an appointment for Monday to check his levels. He jumped from a 9 to an 18.4 in 3 days! At his age a level 20 means admitting him to the hospital, so needless to say I was pretty worried. Our Dr. set up a company to bring us a Bili light bed where Bausten pretty much lived in. It was miserable for all of us, he was only allowed to be out of it during feedings and bath's, which made me so sad I hated having him in there but, luckily he didn't seem to mind at all! We have been going to the Dr.'s everyday to have his levels tested the first day it went from 18.4 to 15 which was great! So Yesterday we were able to turn the lights off and today his level is 13.8 so we are lights free!!!! We are so grateful that he is getting better, Bausten is now finally gaining weight ( a whole ounce a day!!) and he is a nice pink color. We are so glad that our little guy is on his way to being completely healthy again!!
