Weekend Away

Well if you haven't figured it out by now, I was able to go home for the weekend and leave Luke to the nurses. The weekend was pretty easy for Luke. They went up on his feedings to 35 cc's every 3 hours. They also lowered his oxygen. He is now on 3 liters every minute compared to the 4 he was on before. When we returned today, Luke was out of his snugglie and into a swaddle. They now have him wrapped up like a burrito. So far he seems to like it. Tonight we had a little scare while Jonathin was holding Luke. It seemed Luke was way too comfortable and he kept dropping his oxygen concentration. Well, it appears that Luke cannot multitask. He was being held, fed, and needed to poo. After we laid him back in his bed, he relieved himself to the point that he had Jonathin on his knees laughing. It is for sure he did learn that from his father. Needless to say, Jonathin earned his gold star today for that diaper. Also the nurses must have been bored during the weekend. I came back to a little sign and photo of Luke, and Jonathin was replaced by Darth Vader in our picture. Luke's shelves are starting to look like a shrine, that is what 10 weeks can do to you.

The back story, Jonathin thought he was funny when Luke was born with the comment, "Luke, I am your father." He made the mistake of talking about it in front of the nurses. They wondered how long it would take for him to notice.

Apparently this took a large photo shoot for the one picture, but isn't it cute?
