First Night at Home

Well were to start....

Very little sleep as we have to wake Drakkin up every 3 hrs to feed him, but he was only fussy once and then promptly fell asleep again.

I never thought that having a child would change your life so quickly, but everything is all about "Big Man" now. I also figured out that I cant hold him ALL the time and I actually have to put him down at some point so my arms don't fall off.

He is doing much better we kept him bundled up through the night and his temp was just fine. He eats like a teenager already, except when he has hiccups then he doesn't want to eat at all.

Funniest thing he did so far was burp so loud he scared himself then promptly made an upset face at mommy.

More pictures of "Big Man"





Drakkin has been termed "big man" by his aunt Esther, since he is by far the smallest baby in the family. We all hope he will grow into his nickname.

Drakkin has stolen the hearts of anyone who has seen him at the hospital. Comments like " he is so precious" or " he is so adorable" seem to follow him where ever they see him.

He is gaining some weight now and is eating more to put some "meat" on those bones so he wont have "old man knees" as his aunts like to laugh about.

A Drakkin is born


Thursday November 8, 2007 at 6:20 PM (MST) Drakkin was born to parents Ronnie and Adam.
He was Born at 5lbs 2.8 oz and was 17 inches long.

His temperment is already like a dragon as it takes a lot to make him upset, but when he gets mad he is roaring mad. He had problems with eating enough to keep his body temp up, so they put him under warming lamps. ( sounds more and more like a dragon) He now eats a lot more and is starting to get some baby fat on him.

Drakkin already plays tricks on his parents like pretending to be asleep while he is eating.

Both parents are very proud and ready to bring him home where he can terrorize the cats.
