Sunshine shining w/personality!

I never met a baby with more personality than my son Harmon. Because he was a high risk pregnancy we had to do weekly ultrasounds and often he would stick out his tounge and put his hands next to his head as if it was to tell us "nah nah na nah nah" That should have been a hint what I was up for. This boy is all boy. He smiles like no baby I've ever met and he is always into trouble, this morning he opened his sippy cup and dumped it on his new fresh out fit (see pic below).


So that brings me to the cupcakes. In the womb it was Rachel who was causing the problems trying to slip out but it was Callum who was always kicking and causing commotion. I think Rachel wanted out so she could just rest. Callum is now already proving to be one determined, curious, little man! The nurse said he can already roll himself over from his tummy to back and lest we forget he was the one who when first born cried and tore out his breathing tubes. He is growing like a weed and catching up with Rachel. Most of all though when he is awake he is never happy to just lay there, he looks everywhere (see pic below) and explores the world. I love holding him b/c he is just so animated. Something tells me Callum will never be happy staying still.

Than there is my princess (seen below in her ballerina sleeper). She reminds me of a porcelain doll. Very docile compared to her brother and very laid back. In a way bonding has been hard until now (we started bottle feeding her and she is more awake) b/c it has been like watching this little doll in glass display box. I wonder most often what she will grow up to be like. I see my boys being like their father: loving, energetic, strong, etc. but I dunno if Rachel will be like me. Something says she will be her own little lady (hopefully not as strong willed and stubborn as her mom) and it makes me excited to get to know her better.

    Seeing the cupcakes in the NICU reminds me of when my son was in the NICU for 2 weeks. Very scary times. But I'm glad to see that they are doing so well. They are beautiful. And so is little Harmon. I can tell from the pictures that he is loving life and makes your hands full. Congrats on the beautiful children!
