Our first week home!

This last week has just flown by. Trey had his follow up eye appointment yesterday and it went great. They saw no ROP at all..AWESOME. He eyes are fully developed, so his next appointment is not for a year. Next week he has a follow up at the highrisk NICU clinic at Children's and I don't even want to think about it. I promised myself that I will live in the here and now that way I can enjoy every minute but I am sure that everything will be fine.

Trey has a pretty good schedule, He wakes up at 7am for a feeding then sleeps till 9 wakes up to be fed again and then we take Tango for a walk. Then we do some tummy time till he wears himself out. He sleeps from 11-2 in the afternoon and that gives me plenty of time to clean and start dinner. He wakes to be fed and changed then we do some more tummy time and hang out till dad comes home. He usually takes a bottle or breast at 12am then sleeps till 4am and I can't tell you how great it is to sleep from 12-4. I am so glad that we have a schedule; I hate not having one. When things are on a schedule it makes life so much easier.

Trey LOVES tummy time. The doctor said he may not like it but OMG his was wrong. He squeals and smiles. It is so cute. He is doing a great job lifting his head and neck but I have to say it is funny to watch him lift that gigantic melon of his LOL. We have a video of it and when I figure out how to up load it I will post it. Well, he is waking up from his nap so ...got to go.
