Whats new with Carter

Well with all the Brooke troubles I really haven't found the time to post about Carter.

First for those of you that care Brooke is eating like a champ, 10ml (about 1/3 of an ounce) every 3 hours. She did great with her feedings. Jim and I went to see her again last night but they had just put her down for bed. So we really didn't get to see her. We went up to Trent and Brits apartment and chatted with them for about an hour or so. They havn't done rounds yet today but Brit is thinking that she will probably start with 20ml every 3 hours today. It really wont be long and she will be out of the hospital. Maybe even this weekend, but probably some time next week.

Ok on to Carter. He is doing great. Well except for the clingingeness that is really getting to me. He wants me to be holding him 24 hours a day. Just a bit of seperation anxity we will get over is some day.
He is starting to craw. Well not really crawl but army crawl. He is just started it yesterday and really will only do it if I hold a toy just out of his reach. But hey there is light at the end of the tunnel some day he will be able to go forward. (he has been able to go backward for some time now)
A couple nights ago he slept over at grandma's house for the 1st time. I am sure it was much harder on me then it was him. I think it was around 10pm when Jim asked me if I wanted him to go get Carter. But I survied it and so did he. But of course the washers repair man called super early and I didn't get to sleep in at all. Go figure
I don't want to jinx anything but the other huge news is Carter slept through the night now 2 nights in a row. It felt so good waking up this morning with him in his own crib. Now if I could just get to sleep before 2 am we would be great. I just can not fall asleep before 2 am for some reason.

Well thats all for now.....
