doc visit for Kellen

Kellen survived his 2-month shots. Poor little fella screamed at the top of his lungs according to Liz and Preston, but quickly decided he was feeling better. He was 8 lbs. 11 oz and 20.5 inches long. He is growing like a champ. He doesn't have to see the doctor again until 4 months (for more shots... no wonder kids don't like doctors). 

Carson got his button today, which makes feeding him through his G-tube a lot easier. He did well. He took 60 mL from his bottle, so that was fantastic and almost a full feeding. They did not wean on the ventilator. He had a fever last night, so they checked labs and blood gases and he was up on his CO2 to 59. He didn't have any changes indicating infection and his fever went away, but they are not going to change his ventilator today. Keep praying for him...we need good progress in the next couple weeks on weaning his ventilator.

We are so thankful that you are joining with us in prayer!
