The Hospital Days Are Almost Over


Update on Little Nathan
Nathan's been in an open crib since Thursday night.
Today, they'll start feeding him only through bottles.
As of yesterday, he weighs: 4lbs and 9oz.
He's blood level is low so he needs a lot of iron.
He passed his hearing test and he's awake more.
The nurse practitioner told us on Sunday that he'll be ready to
go home in about 10 days.
We found a pediatrician that works right next to
the hospital.
Now, we're on the prowl for a carseat that will
hold little guys like him.
His hospital days are numbered, and we're excited
and a little scared.
But, we are confident enough to know
that we'll do a good job taking care of him.
The adventures will begin soon.
