Wow today is November 10th and Deecon is 6 weeks old... We had been waiting since birth for the footprints of Deecon that we had ordered, but because of his fragile state they were not able to do them right away. So to our surprise today we were greeted with a frame of the cutest little footpirnts. So we finally have his adorable first footprints to keep forever... When we came into the nursery, our primary nurse Diane says "so who wants to kangaroo today?" In disbelief Daddy and I look at eachother. Diane is a kidder so we thought she was joking.. Daddy was so excited when she confirmed she was for real.. He hurried off to get ready for his first snuggle with his son. It was so cute to see the excitement in Daddy's eyes as he prepared to hold you for the first time. Simply priceless. As Deecon was placed on Daddy's chest he heard this little sound coming from Deecon. He looked at me as I videotaped him and exclaimed.. "He Cried"... In disbelief I just looked at him and questioned "what".. He repeated himse
lf and at the same time I heard him cry... it was like music to my ears... Mommy cried at the same time in happiness of course. He sounded like a little baby kitty as he let out his cry, it was the most adorable sound ever... The sound of his first cry meant that the surgeons didn't hit his vocal cords and that he would be able to talk.. this was a great moment.. all caught on tape :) Deecon's day before kagarooing with his Daddy had been fair. But Deecon adjusted better than expected, before kangarooing he was in 75% oxygen which is really high, but after some time nestled into his Daddy's chest his oxygen requirement came down to an amazing 56%, very impressive. His heart rate was high as well this day beating at high between high 170's to 180, but after time on his daddy his heart rate settle back down to his normal at high between high 150's to 160. It was so amazing how this works. He just melts into you. It was funny cause while on Daddy Deecon got the hiccups.. it was cute.. For the next few hours Deecon settled into a peaceful sleep on his father's chest.. Daddy loving every second of it. In fact he had a choice to stop at 715pm during nurse changeover but he requested to continue until 830pm. What a great bonding day for Deecon and Daddy xoxo Mommy can't wait until it's her turn next :)
