All Smiles

I don't think Luke wanted to face all the Notre Dame that his dad was wearing.

Luke's arms are so long.

As you can see from the pictures, Jonathin finally got to hold Luke for the first time in 8 weeks. It was funny, Jonathin was all cranky and tired before but as soon as they put him in his arms he was happy as a clam. Luke was able to hold a good temperature for two hours while Jonathin held him. They didn't do kangaroo kare. Instead he was placed in Jonathin's arms while he was still in his snugglie. (the shoe looking thing that he is always wrapped in.) Luke hardly "desatted" during the time. And if he did he only went down to the mid 80's. I don't want to say much, but it seems that Luke is finally turning corners and is ready to just grow up and start acting like a little normal baby. That is a normal baby with a SiPap. Last night Jonathin left for his fishing trip and won't be back till the 21st. He will be getting a daily check up text message. Hopefully by the time he gets back Luke will be moved to another machine, either CPAP or Vasotherm. I don't want to push him too much. He is now 3 pounds 4 ounces. He is so close to clothes, that he might have them on by Friday. Woot Woot! I hope he doesn't hate clothing too much. I am writing this a day late due to company at the Riley. Today (Thursday) Luke's "little" 5 week old cousin is having surgery here. Hopefully it is nothing major with Quin, but at least she is down here. That pretty much sums up Wednesday. Hopefully another good day today. Thanks everyone for the continued prayers.
