Best Mothers Day EVER

Our baby graduated from this incubator/isolet to a crib!! He regulates his body temp good (when he is swaddled in several blankets and has clothes and a hat on :). He weighs 4 lbs 2 oz now and is eating his full feedings... so far he is digesting it all good! His main goal to be able to leave here is to eat without help of his ng-tube. He just doesn't have enough endurance right now to eat his full feeding on his own :)We got to hold him for 6 hrs so it was the best Mothers Day ever!!! He is the sweetest boy!!

Right now he is in this ghetto crib:) and is on a waiting list for the actual crib. There are just too many kids here. The nurses said they haven't had this many at once in a long time. They usually have two kids per wall on each side of each room, but right now they have 3. So its tight quarters, but its all good because my baby is in a crib!


 His nurse made this for him when he moved to his crib. Its a graduation gift...and I love it!!



Today is the day doctors wanted to get me to after my water broke (34 weeks), but he was born at 32 weeks and will be 2 weeks old tomorrow:) We LOVE our baby boy!
