5 days old. Circumcision and Jaundice

Dearest lil Kayden,
Today had its up and downs.
Nana came up and spoiled you wrotten. She helped out a ton around here too. At the moment you are in her arms with your eyes wide open looking around. Nana has been such a huge help since youve been hold. So when you read this make sure you call and thank her!
Well today we took you to get circumcised and it broke my heart! You weighed and even 7 lbs. So you are gaining weight which is good! But when it came time to do the circumcision I had to leave the room cause I just can't stand to see you in pain. Daddy waited with me in the waiting room but Nana stayed in the room with you. It made me feel so good that someone was with you. While we were getting you all ready for your surgery we had to change your diaper. And you peed all over the table. It was pretty bad. Then after the surgery when the nurse was cleaning everything up you peed all over her! Then we had the dr check you for Jaundice cause we thought you looked a little yellow.
Then we went to eat at Red Robin and you slept the whole time which was nice.
After that we went to walmart and picked up a few items you needed. Then we had to go to JcPenney cause you keep peeing through all your pjs and only two of them have gloves. So we picked out 4 new pjs and nana picked out quite a few outfits and insisted on paying for it all. We even put you in one of the onesies she bought for a lil bit tonight.
Well once we got you home Nana gave you a bath since you peed all over yourself twice. Right after she had finished giving you your bath you peed everywhere again! So she had to give you another one. I think its quite funny that you keep peeing everywhere.
Oh and while we were at JcPenney the Dr called and said you do have Jaundice. It is so scary for mommy and daddy. It is hard for us to see you sick even though its not really sick but yeah. So they had a little light machine delivered to the house and we have to keep you on it pretty much 24/7 for the next few days. Tomorrow we go back to the dr to have you jaundice levels checked again. Lets hope they are lower. Today they are at a 20.
Well that is about all that has happened with you today. It is getting really late so I am going to feed you and head to bed.
Remember we love you lots,
Mommy
