Braeden Has A Belly Button (and a social life)
Braeden had a very exciting diaper change last night. When I removed his onesie, the umbilical cord stump fell out. He has a belly button now! There are still some small pieces that will fall off so we’re not giving him a full bath just yet but the big piece that can get caught on his clothes is gone. I’m so relieved to not have to worry about it getting ripped off anymore!
Braeden also had a social night last night. He went to happy hour at Messner’s to meet a bunch of mommy’s friends and wish them happy birthday. He was not phased one bit by all the noise. He was out cold for about two hours, giving Mom and Dad a chance to enjoy a beer (or four for Dad!) and some dinner. After happy hour, Braeden went over to Uncle Ben and Aunt Carrie’s place to watch American Idol. It was a long night for him but he was very well behaved. He only cried when he was hungry. That’s a good sign for taking him out to watch basketball in a couple weeks!
