Ian's graduated again

Saturday was a big day for Ian - first Grammy and Grampy Lynch came to visit and got to see him for the first time without all the breathing tubes. Then that night he was moved to a crib - no more isolette! I've been practicing feeding with him and he's doing better - at least he knows that he gets fed from me even if he can't quite do it completely yet. Today was interesting- Steven got to deal with exploding poop - quite a sight to see - poop coming out nearly horizontally and flying over the side of the crib to get all down the front of me and the crib. Nice Ian! We went back to Babies R Us and got the car seat the NICU reccomended - and talked to everyone in there about their strollers and what they liked or disliked. We were in there for like two hours. Here are some more pictures from Sat morning and this afternoon - before poop all bundled up and then after poop while Steven was holding him so his crib could be changed! He looks pleased with himself...

Good Job Baby Ian. So what is he weighing these days? Glad to hear the little guy's pooper is working, those antibiotics can do a number on that. I love the last picture and have it as my background. He does look so sweet and pleased with himself. Have an Awesome Day.

Love,
Michelle

He's up to 4 pounds 2 ounces as of last night's weigh in - he gets weighed each night around 8 PM. So he's keeping his temp well and gaining weight which is good since he burns calories just trying to keep his temp up.
