It's a GIRL...we went for our ultrasound at Queen's Hospital today (which, if you ever get to make the choice of where to go for ultrasound or delivery, I would DEFINITELY recommend here)...kidneys have some fluid in them, but the technician said that it doesn't look like it's too bad or abnormal. It's amazing what they can see on that thing...we asked how she knew it was a girl, if it was just the absence of a dingding, and she smiled and replied that they can actually see labia. She pointed it out to me, but it just looked like two little white dots. Baby was sucking her thumb...you could actually see her putting her hand to her mouth and then you could see the tongue lapping vigorously...like she was hungry or something. Grrrreat, we gonna have another hungry sucker like Caleb! She weighs about a pound now....which means that there's a whole lot of time for her to get to Caleb's weight!!!

Our name right now is Bryna Su Colmenares. We're debating on the double-n or not...Bryna or Brynna. Colmenares is such a long last name that we wanted to cut out any unnecessary letters, but as I look at it typed out, Bryna looks kind of weird...like we're dyslexically trying to spell Bryan or something.

Caleb just finished his dinner, and is whimpering/crying because he hates when his meal ends. He LOVES to eat. I've been making him less food (giving him rice cereal instead of regular rice, cutting down on the portion) so that he would take in more milk...he is drinking more, but he seems hungry...he's waking up at 3:30-4:00 instead of his usual 5:00-5:30, and hungrily inhaling his 6 oz. of milk. This morning he drank 6 oz at 3:30, then had another 4 oz at 6:10...which sucks for us.

I made his first homemade meal tonight...rice, carrots, and chicken boiled in chicken broth and water. I'm gonna try to blenderize it and see how it turns out. He needs more food.

He's freakin' crying now cuz Dave took him out of his eating seat...wth?!
