update for today

Kellen has been preparing to go home this morning. The nurses are making sure Preston and Elizabeth are up on all their parenting skills and pass the test of being responsible adults that can care for a child. :)  Of course, we have no doubts they will pass with flying colors.

Carson is doing well. He is getting to wear clothes which makes us all excited although he may not care one way or the other. His blood gas was good again, so they weaned down his peak inspiratory pressure to 21. Also, he is now getting his feeds over one hour every three hours. All is going well today. 

I forgot to tell everyone, but Liz told me a precious story last night. A couple of days ago, they put the boys in the bed together. As they were lying side by side, they just snuggled right into each other. Carson fell fast asleep and Kellen was very content as well. Then, Kellen got hungry and started rooting around. What he found was Carson's nose and he began sucking on Carson's nose. I can just imagine how hilarious that looked. I hope Liz and Preston got pictures. ;)  

We are looking forward to Kellen getting out of the hospital tomorrow!

Have a wonderful weekend.
