15. Breast Milk Warms Diana

Diana is pumping, she's taking Madonna's advice, and she's expressing herself. One of the frozen breast milk bottles fell, and broke, so they thawed it, and Virginia is feeding it to him now, on the stairs. Diana has come up to V's room to pump her full udders. It makes a peculiar sound, it's almost like the pump says, "I don't know." Diana is saying that the breast automatically makes the milk the right temperature for the baby. The bottles rest on her legs and she says they're warm. He drank the whole bottle, now V is burping him up here.

I feel asleep early last night. Diana stayed up till 2am to let her parents in. We've got 4 children, and 7 adults here, for Memorial Day. He slept till 6am, and Diana fed him. It woke me up a little bit, she stayed in the room. He fell asleep on her chest. Virginia took him at 9, and fed him a bottle, and he slept 3 hours. He seems to like to sleep in large crowds. V. went grocery shopping, and everyone held him. His abuelo, Judy, his abuela, Aida.

He's still in his PJs, he hasn't defecated himself out of them, like he did out of 2 outfits yesterday.

Last night we watched 2 Baby Einstein DVDs. I'm going to put them on play repeatedly when I'm taking care of him during the day, probably. Stimulate him. One is languages, they speak in a bunch of languages. The other one is Bach.
