I am sitting with Kellen watching him sleep...I didn't realize someone could be so cute while sleeping! ;) Probably all the parents out there already knew, but gee wheez, this kid is cute all the time. Kellen and I are hanging out here while Daddy and Mommy go visit Carson and go to Liz's 6-week appt. Kellen is doing great. His 1-week appt. is tomorrow so we will get to see how much he weighs tomorrow. I think he has gained weight, because his cheeks just keep getting cuter all the time.

Liz had a fantastic 6-week appt and Dr. Vlastos told her she is doing wonderful. I must agree, she has recovered much better than I ever expected. She just needs to follow up in about 6-9 months to do a study on her internal incision to make sure it has healed completely. 

Carson had another uneventful day. He is still the same weight at 6 lbs 6 oz. The doctor's say we just need to get him to gain his Christmas weight like everyone else and we will be doing well. Preston has mentioned drizzling a little chocolate over his feeding and seeing if that will help. :) There won't be any changes that we know of to his ventilator until we can get him trending up on his weight gain. Tomorrow, we believe there will be an ultrasound of his liver to follow-up on the abnormality from last Wednesday. 

Other than that, a lovely day in rainy St. Louis! Doesn't look like it is going to be a White Christmas, but we are just so thankful to God for the gift of his Son, our savior, and our precious little Christmas miracles. Thank you, Jesus! Have fun counting down until Christmas.

I included two pictures, one is of Carson making an OOOO with his mouth...one of our favorite expressions both boys make! It is funny because they have similar expressions. The second is of Kellen...he was sitting after a feeding and just smiling away for at least 5 minutes. What a happy baby!
