Diaper days

Gabe had some good news to share. He filled up his diaper, #2, for the first time. He was rewarded by getting extra milk and more often. This is great news, since it is the first steps of him being ready to eat is own lunch instead of having other nutrients pumped directly into his blood supply.

Other funny news.... Mom changed his diaper yesterday. However, when the nurse was turning him over his diaper fell off. Oopsie! Gabe had to be turned again to his back so he could get the diaper reattached. :)

  4. Poop Poop Hurray! What great news you guys! Bandit has settled in quite nicely. He took to me first and would only come out when I talked to him on the first day. Now he's walking everywhere, allowing everyone to pet him, using his litter box(yeah) and definitely eating. He's a great addition to our family. Thanks. Enjoy your new home!
