The power of burping……and rookie mistakes.
Being a Nard, Desmond 2 Comments »Being a parent involves a lot of trial and error, as someone who works in the IT world I am very familiar with troubleshooting and errors. Being a dad requires the use of those skills. Desmond seems to have trouble sleeping, its a hit or miss process. Some nights are great, some nights not so much. Danyelle recently informed us that he REALLY needs to burp! I knew the burp was important, just not how much. If I could not make him burp, I moved on. That was rookie mistake number one. So the last 24 hours he has slept a lot! Which has been great for us, it has given us some time to refresh and focus again. We have been working extra hard to make him burp. That leads me in to rookie mistake number two. Last night I wanted him to burp so bad that I have gave him a little squeeze. It made sense to me….he has a burp in there that wont come up, so a few good pats and a little squeeze will make that burp shoot right out! Well it did work, but what followed the burp I was not expecting. As he burped, a warm river of milk flowed down my back as he lay across my shoulder. This was no spit up as I have experience before. This was Desmond’s first puke up on Daddy. The circle is now complete, I have been peed, pooped, and puked on. I know that circle will just keep rotating as life goes on.
Valentines Day is here, and Desmond had his cute little outfit on last night that he got from his Mumeire, but he really was not up for taking pictures, so we did the best we could, as you can see he is very much asleep. Picture number two is fomthe other night and he shows off how he can prop himself up all by himself! Anyway we will get some more today. So Happy Valentines Day to all.
