Happy Due Date!

It's here -- Wesley's due date!  He is now "official" and no longer a preemie.  (Although, admittedly, I could never really refer to him as a preemie anyway).  Tomorrow he is 4 weeks old, and it's hard to believe that four weeks have already passed since his birth.  It's amazing how much quicker time flies when you are a parent.

Wesley has reached his predicted birthdate!

The past four weeks have been quite stinky and filthy.  If Wesley isn't having one or two blow-outs a day, he has 15 small poopy diapers daily.  He's still peeing all over, and he hasn't had a bath yet that hasn't had urine in the water.  He's the messiest little eater as well, and we go through bibs and burp rags almost as much as diapers in this house.  But despite the fact our environment is smelly, I wouldn't trade being the mommy of a little boy for the world.  (Can the other boy mommies out there tell me this doesn't last forever though?!)

Wesley is starting to fill out.  He has a little bit of meat on his legs and tummy and has grown a second chin.  He has also developed a case of baby acne.  His eyes are still dark gray, but I can see a tinge of brown so I'm guessing he'll end up with his daddy's and sister's eyes.  His hair has lightened up a tad.  Wesley still hates to have his diaper changed, his clothes changed, being lotioned up, or getting a bath.  He screams bloody murder during all of those inconveniences.  The only thing that settles him down is a bottle.  Like my friend Becky said - he's a typical man with food being the only way to his heart.  :)

Not only handsome but also tired like daddy....
