No changes tonight. He gained 15 grams, but it's not enough to get him up another ounce. One of the nurses informed us that he was eventful tonight, pulling out his feeding tube! That thing was taped to his face, so he had to have been REALLY pulling. You would think he'd stop when it hurt!



We've been practicing the mouth feedings, and he's sort of getting it. He tries for a few minutes, then he falls asleep. In this picture, you can kind of see him "rooting" around. Getting his fingers in his mouth seems to be a good thing.


I do have a card reader to play with, but I'm not sure if it actually deleted all the pictures off of the camera we have with the cord, or if I managed to forget that I put them all on the computer already, so I'll play with that soon.

Great pictures. And Patrick is strong and fierce so of course he yanks hard.

The picture with Jon and Patrick both sleeping is classic. Maybe for the Birth Announcement. :)
Or Christmas Card, although, Jen, you should be in that one.
