Bye Grandma!

My mom left to go back to Texas on Monday. To make a long story short, there were many tears shed.. I felt so scared being left to take care of this newborn baby! My mom has been here since he was born and did so much- she woke up at night with Brent, changed most of his diapers, bathed him- you name it, she did it. It was a bit scary to see her leave, but so far we are all alive and surviving!

Brent went to the pediatrician today and he has lost an ounce. Obviously she was not too concerned that he lost weight. She walked in and called him a "Brute"- I believe that is the word she used. : ) His umbilical cord still has not fallen off. Why does that not surprise me??! He didn't even want to come out of the womb anywhere close to on time.. what makes me think the cord would come off in a timely manner?! The doctor is going to give it another week before she will remove it. We do the alcohol swabs religiously- I don't know why the dang cord won't budge!

Here are a few pictures from Grandma and Brent's last day together..
