Kellen got his Synagis shot (protects against RSV) today and was weighed b/c it is weight-based on the amount. He weighed 9 lbs 7 oz. Liz and I were laughing because at 2.5 months, he finally reached our birth weight. He did well with the shot and continues to be a delightful little guy. 

Carson had a good day. They weaned down to 8 on his PEEP plus. Next step will be working on weaning the rate more. He is at 12 now and they are going to try to get him to 5 or 6. He has a blood gas on Friday so we can pray it is excellent so they will keep weaning. He did lose weight, so we also need to pray he isn't working too hard to breathe. He continues to not do as well with the bottle, but for right now, we are focusing on ventilation. They increased his Prevacid, because they thought it might be reflux that is contributing to his poor eating. We will see what that does.
