First Bath

Tucker had his first bath today. Mommy assisted the nurse with picking him up during certain times but was a little apprehensive of washing him herself.


He loved having a bath, he was very calm throughout the whole thing.


My little guy has already grown 1/2 in. in 5 days. We are up to 15 1/2 inches!



If all goes well today he will be taken off his nasal canual. The IV in is belly button was removed this afternoon because he is doing so well with his feedings and doesn't need to be feed through an IV anymore. By his 6:00 feeding tonight he will have reached his feeding goal already of 27 cc's.


We are thanking God for him doing so well, He most certainly is in control.  We've got at least 4 more weeks there so he can grow and be able to bottle feed before we go home. We are very thankful that he has made so much progress in the 5 days he has been here.

It is so rewarding when they hit the smallest and even the largest of accomplishments.. It can be crazy but it will bring you so much closer to God and your husband...
