What would have been 37 weeks

Belly photos, why not?

And here's a hint when taking pictures of babies - Try to have a bright room and avoid the flash if possible.  Brightening up the photo later is what Photoshop is for (when they hit high school and you have a few minutes to actually touch up photos).  We keep the house pretty dark because my eyes are extremely light sensitive so this is a bit of an issue for us.  However, it's still better to go too dark because, um, well here's the difference.

Okey dokey.  Off to start a blog page where I dump random little tidbits and ideas that I'm figuring out as I go along.  Like how their cords came off today and it just doesn't seem right to allow a gooey belly button with a little bit of bleeding rub and stain what might be dirty clothing.  So we took my disposable nursing pad and stuck it inside the onesie so the soft part is kind of protecting the belly button, if it gets wet, that circle of skin should remain relatively dry, and no blood stains on the onesie that I'm borrowing from the very generous Moms Of Multiples Preemie Closet.
