a quick update


A happy traveler!

Hendrik has been the star of the show here, and the Hendrik hotline has been ringing off the hook - "are they there yet? is he awake is he feeding?" And then visitors and passing around and excitement... and love! He is one lucky little dude to have so many people doting on him. The trip here from Ottawa was great, and Hendrik slept all the way to Kingston and then all the way to Bowmanville, making for two content parentals. The roads were good too, save for a slow and snowy stretch just past Kingston... but we made it! We're still trying the breastfeeding thing, but supplementing after every feed with formula - and the little piglet takes it and drinks drinks drinks, making me wonder how much I'm really giving him in my 35-45 minutes feeding sessions - erk. But I'm going to keep on working at it, hoping that feeds will get better and much more comfortable once things have healed. Having said that, I think it's time to feed him again, so .... some pics, and a video - a big highlight from this afternoon!

He's here! Oh, and Heather and Steve too...

Yummy yummy meals, with everyone at the table :)
