When we would get up every 2-3 hours to go feed him, Benjy would often look at me and say, "Aren't you tired." I have to admit, I don't know if it was the hormones or the pain medication, but I couldn't wait to go see him again and didn't feel tired. Often times the nurses would come in to wake us up and I was standing there waiting for Benjy to get up so we could go.
I would nurse him, but then we would do extra supplementing with my milk through a bottle, just to make sure he was always getting enough. Benjy did the bottling and was very good at it!
Once again, we threw out the idea of not giving Kyce any bottles for a couple of weeks, so that he would be a great nurser. Whatever...he is a little lion when it comes time to eat. Giving him the bottle doesn't seem to have effected that in any way. Bonus: He takes a bottle really well... great for the day after Thanksgiving Shopping Day and going to see New Moon!

I love those little toes. He looked like E.T. except the light was on his foot instead of his finger!
We have had so much fun already having him home. Although after the first 8 hours we had an entire full load of laundry of just Kyce's blankets, onsies, pajamas, socks and burp cloths. I mean really. I can't even tell you how many times we have been tinkled on! In fact Benjy took him to the room to have a little talk with him about this tinkling on us, himself and everything else. In fact if you ask Benjy about it , he could go on for hours about how ridiculous this is that we can't seem to get control of this little issue.
Finding good socks that stay on his feet is a task!
He looks so tiny in his little car seat. I told Benjy when we found out we were pregnant that this time, the hospital was going to have to kick me out before I would go home. I went home a day early with both girls because Benjy was ready to get home and get out of the hospital. Well this time I was the one who was ready to run out the door of the hospital. Other than two not so good experiences, overall we had a great nursing staff. I just couldn't wait to get Kyce home in order to have unlimited access to him, to be able to hold him for hours, to be able to watch him sleep and have him with us at all times! I seriously watch him with the girls and I am just so, so happy! I feel like he is our miracle little baby that for a couple of years, we just didn't think would happen and I thank my Father in Heaven and my husband for the blessing of this beautiful little baby.

Wow you guys, you have a beautiful beautiful baby on your hands! He is so precious! It makes me want to see him so badly! I love reading the details! Its so fun to see you experiencing 'boys'! I don't think the whizzing on everything all the time stops for a while though! Cade still does it...in fact he did it today! I love baby Kyce already! Great pics and keep them coming! I just told Kevin what an amazing blessing to have everything go so well with home coming to your family. We prayed for you all daily. He is very lucky to have you as parents.
Congratulations!
So glad Kyce is home and things are going so well. It's great to hear happiness in your "voice" again.
Take care.
Hugs & kisses to the cute little boy!

I am so happy for you guys! Kyce is a cutie! Get use to getting peed on. My mother-in-law bought us tee pees, where you cover their little penis with it as you change them. Can't wait to see this little guy grow up along with Colton. Congrats!
Thanks for the pictures. He is a cute little boy. Glad that you are all home together. Give your family our love!!
He is so beautiful! Congrats! I hope everything is smooth sailing from now on. Have you thought about getting a blessing for the trauma you all went through? I know I would need one! Best wishes all around and to the new big sisters too!
He is adorable, your mood seems so much happier now that you have your "little leaker" home. COngratulations on your growing family. When does everyone get to meet eachother?

Oh I am so glad everything has worked out and that you all are home now!! He is adorable!!! I just want to snuggle him!
I love all these new experiences you are having with Kyce and I bet they will just keep coming. I love Luann's nickname Little Leaker how cute. I have to say he is really a cutie and we are so happy you are all home and your family is all together. Can't wait to get my hands on him again.
CONGRATULATIONS GUYS! We are so happy for you. Kyce is so tiny. How are the girls adapting?
He is so adorable, all that hair is amazing! I love seeing photos of the little guy and can't wait to see photos of Kyce with his proud big sisters! What a blessing for all of you!
He is beautiful!! I'm glad everything is going good.
I love all of his hair. :)
He is so darn cute! Holding him today was so fun! He's such a peanut! I love the hair too! Glad things are going so much better and that everyone is well.
PS: it makes me sad to see those pjs on him...my little one is getting way to big, ugh! But he looks so cute in them.
Kyce is just beautiful, Kris and Benjy. Congratulations! So glad everyone is healthy and happy.
