One week old already...

Here are some new pictures of Mason. I know his hair looks blonde in some of these, but trust me it's as black as Fred's. I guess the flash makes it look blonde. And the line in his head is just his IV...the one in his hand was puffy so they put it in his head.

After losing a little weight after birth, he's now gaining and almost up to his birth weight. He's also taking all of his feedings by bottle which is really a great accomplishment. Most babies his gestation need to eat by tube because they don't have the suck/swallow reflex yet. So he's really doing fantastic.
