3 lbs 1oz!!!!!!!!

Noah has passed the 3 pound mark!!! He is now 3lbs 1oz.  With his weight gain he continues to improve in other areas.  He is down very low on the amount of oxygen flowing through his nasal canula, and is doing great.  The most noticable change is that he is in an open crib!!  He is no longer in the isolette.  They are keeping a close eye on him, and if he stops gaining weight (or losing) he will have to go back, because that would mean he is working too hard to maintain his temperature.  He is trying to botttle feed at some of his feedings.  It wears him out pretty quickly, but he is starting to get the hang of it. Just like they have been doing, his feedings continually increase with his weight gain....he now gets 31mls (just over an ounce).  Noah keeps on showing us what a fighter he really is, we can't wait to get him home!!

Noah's new bed...notice Wyatt hiding behind it, turning on the music for his little brother.
