This picture was taken by his mommy.
Friends of ours were planning to have children, eventually. Due to medical issues and incorrect predictions about fertility, they were expecting a little earlier than planned. Once their swimming minds caught up, they were (and are) ecstatic.
Their precious baby boy was born near Thanksgiving last year. He was born with a cleft palette, so there was a learning curve when it came to feeding him. Now, he is thriving and she is back to work. Did I mention we live in Maryland? Uh, yeah, it's expensive to live here.
They are managing wonderfully well. She only needs to work a couple of days a week as opposed to full time like before. One of those days, due to the nature of the work, must be in the office. That's where I come into the picture. I have the privilege of taking care of this little guy once a week while she goes in to work.
I've gotta say, he loves to sleep, but sometimes he just fusses at me letting me know I need to help. The hard rhythmic pat to the diaper does the trick in 2 seconds flat. We're bonding already :)
