I was discharged from St. John's today and am home with Steve and Andrew :) Before we left the hospital, Steve and I were able to hold our newest son!! Nathan is still doing great and is now receiving oxygen via a CPAP and a nasal cannula - they are rotating these two forms of oxygen every 6 hours and Nathan is holding his own like a champ. He also moved to a new crib today - an isolette where he is fully covered and still receiving his photo therapy to help reduce his bilirubin level. Nathan is still responding well to his feedings and seems to like his new digs :)

Andrew was excited to visit Nathan with us tonight. He was really the hit of the NICU and every nurse made their way outside the window to say hi. They couldn't believe how well behaved he was, but it doesn't take much when double-fisting Nilla Wafers :)
