Maxley is 3lbs 5oz today! A little at a time and it’s going well.
Grandma Terri had a big day today. She helped give Maxley a bath and she got to give him a bottle today! She did really well and said it is definitely harder than it seems. You would think it would be simple but it’s so many things to think about at once.
It’s the 3rd bath I’ve helped with and Grandma Terri’s first. They usually do it at night after we go to bed so we don’t get to see it. He likes getting his hair washed a lot!
He stayed awake tonight for almost 2 hours straight!! That is by far the longest he has ever stayed awake at one time. It’s so cute to see him develop.

I don’t know you, I think I may have briefly know scott in high school? I have been following your story and I just have so much to say. I’m so desperately sorry for the loss of your husband, your strength for your son and family is so encouraging and beautiful. Maxley is about the cutest baby I’ve ever seen and I’m so grateful he is here and getting stronger. I continue to pray for you, your son, your husband, and your strength to get through this. You’re such a light.
