The past few days have been good days. Nathan is recovering well from surgery. His tummy is a good color and soft. His incision looks good. He pooped yesterday out his bottom and had nothing out his fistula. (This is a great sign because this would be one of the first steps of healing....now it may also be old stool that he is just now passing, but we are praying that it is a sign that God is healing him). We go and visit him twice a day and read stories to him. Tonight Preston and I took an mp3 player to both boys that has us reading a few of their books on it. The nurses are putting it in their beds so they can hear us a little more often.
Owen is doing well. He is up to 10ml of milk every three hours. He continues to stay on the CPAP machine and is doing very well on it.
Recently both boys have had eye exams. Preemies are at a high risk for having eye sight problems. They will get this test every two weeks for a while. Both of theirs came back looking good for now.
Logan had a good weekend. He spent a lot of time up at the hospitals with us. He loves going to Nathan's hospital (Children's hospital) because they have radio flyer wagons and he can ride in them all over the hospital. Plus there are lots of exciting things for him to look at, like giant Lion statues. He also enjoys going to Owen's hospital (Brookwood) because he can usually talk us in to getting him chocolate milk. He knows his way around the hospital so well, he could actually get it himself if we let him. We spend lots of time reading him books while at Brookwood.
Today our friends Song and Christina came in to town with their family. We had a great time visiting together and the kids really enjoyed playing together. It was nice to get our minds off of everything and just enjoy company of some great friends.
