She doesn't post much on social media lately (life, work, not enough sleep - welcome to parenthood LOL!) and so while she sends our little family chat photos regularly she doesn't post them herself. I try and respect that.
As far as scrapping requests go the things I would like to see would be about the NICU - Michael was 6 weeks early and spent a couple of weeks there before he was ready to come home, and then the ways we connect across the miles since we don't live close by. I get quick updates pretty regularly via Snapchat mostly, and we've done a few video calls. I'm sure that will increase as he gets older - he is already fascinated with screens of all kinds  We won't get to travel for an in person visit again until after his auntie is graduated from high school.
A couple of recent pages featuring him:

Gosh, what a cutie pie.
You know what, a NICU kit seems like a good idea to me too, now that you mention it. Wren was in NICU for five days, so we definitely have photos too. I will have to see what I can do with that idea.
I also like the distance idea. I will add that to my list of things to mull. Thank you.
