Well it is official...Isaac has red hair! It is a beautiful color but I never thought I would have child with red hair. I always thought that my children would have brown hair. His eyes are a dark grayish blue. He is also as of yesterday 7 pounds and half an ounce. My has he grown since August 12. He is still in newborn sized clothes and diapers. However I look for him to be out of those very soon.
I am extremely tired as he doesn't sleep very well after midnight. I am beginning to think that the NICU had parties every night between midnight and 4 am. He generally sleeps for about 15 minutes or less between those hours. Needless to say it is wearing on me. I Have tried many differnt things to try and get him to sleepfor at least an hour at a time to no avail. He also has a difficult time nursing now. I am kicking around the idea of stopping but the benefits of breast milk are so great. I am nor certain if these two issues are due to his prematurity or just him. I know arianna cried a lot the first month but I don't recall it being like this. If anyone wants to take a night shift for me please let me know!
Have a great rest of the weekend.
I can't wait to see and hold him! Red hair! What a precious cutie pie! We showed AJ the pictures here one of the last times she was at our house. We told her she and Issac were cutie pie #1 and cutie pie #2. I'd take a night shift for you if I could.
