Loki weighs 1535 grams today and although maybe not quite chubby enough to completely fill up his new outfit, length wise he just fits in it. On the first picture you can see how Loki works out his feeding tube with his tongue. He is very crafty at pushing the tube out of his mouth, after which he often loops his little fingers around it and finishes the job with his hands. Although these tubes are meant to stay in for a week, he often needs it put back in several times a day. I wish I could explain to the little trickster he is creating more misery for him self.
On Tuesday Aunty Marieke is leaving already. We're sad about that, because it is great to have her here. However, dad is coming back and I am very excited to see him again, it is not really fun, 12 days without him. I really think he is going to be blown away about how much our little guy has grown. He is on his way to four pounds now!
Watch what I do with my tongue:
I am more alert and like to look around when I am well rested:
When I look around my eyes tend to cross a little bit:

CUTE! You want him to fight his tubes. It means he is strong and feisty. It will in the end help him grow, inspite of temporary misery.
Go, Loki.
Thanks for the outfit Mascha, it looks really good on him. I want to safe it for tomorrow so Jesse sees it on :-)
Hoi mom,
Wat een schatje zeg! Zo leuk die foto's. Ik mail je nog wel even wat uitgebreider. Bedankt voor jullie kadootje voor ons kleine mannetje. Het is erg leuk, ik stuur wel even een foto.
We hebben dad gister en eergister gezien en hij is erg trots op jullie kleine mannetje!

I am sooo happy to see Loki is getting stronger and doing well. He cries really nice, soothes himself, and puts his hands in the right spots when on mom's chest. Yay! And his face is so plumpy!
PS - I have some home-made yogurt I made if you'd like it. Plain. Organic.

Hi Marieke, Lijn and sweet little Loki!
Such nice pictures, so much progress - so far away from here. I miss you! We were lucky and happy to have dad here for some time. We really enjoyed that! But he will be home soon, and that is where he belongs. Loki looks so irresistably cute, he is adorable! I can hardly wait to hold him when he is at home sometime soon. Love to you all,
oma Heleen.
He is growing so much! And looks adorable in his real little boy outfits! Hugs to mom, dad and Loki!
Loki and Mom,
I am now on my way home. See you soon! XOXOX
