Quick update

Things are going well. Julia loves Jude but is a bit jealous of all the attention Jude is getting, especially from me. The fact that Jude nurses for so long is not helping. She want mommy to do everything for her. She is also doing a lot of "look at me" things. We are trying to give her a lot of personal attention and praise. We will just have to see how things go.

Jude is still doing well. We had to take him to Children's today to have blood taken so they could re-test his jaundice levels. They were high yesterday at the hospital, just under the level of treatment, but at a level where they usually keep the baby an extra day to re-test. They only let us go under the condition of having him re-tested today. Lucky, the levels increased only slightly, which means his jaundice levels have probably spiked and Jude's liver will now soon catch up and clear up the jaundice.

The first night home went well. He was up several times to eat, but I did manage several hours of sleep. So it was not too bad. Julia screamed her entire first night home!

Jude is covered in a rash though, I think I remember Julia having this same issue. I guess Jude has just as sensitive skin as his sister. We will just have to be careful about what products come in contact with his skin.

Now for some pictures.....





For some reason this picture is flipped the wrong way, but I thought it was just to precious and had to share it anyway.
