Campbell’s first day has gone well. We haven’t managed to break him yet, so that’s something since we are novices at this. At least we have had 9 weeks of training in the NICU on how to do everything from diaper changing to swaddling to using a bulb suction. I don’t think we could have had any better training.
The cats continue to be intrigued by Campbell (he seems far less interested in them than they are in him), but everyone seems to be getting along so far.
He’s definitely got his days and nights mixed up. After he slept soundly all morning (having exhausted himself overnight, no doubt), the big adventure of the day was a spa treatment! Campbell’s nails are so long – they don’t cut them in the NICU, so they’ve been growing for 9 1/2 weeks. Here’s a picture of them
And of Campbell getting his first spa treatment. 🙂
And letting everyone know how fabulous he looks:
