8 days old, and thriving!






Here's an update of Asher, and didn't he change in one week? Look at those cheekies! He hit five pounds this week, got all his oxygen removed, his bed is no longer warmed and he is holding his own temperature just great. He is due to get his feeding tube removed as he is eating on his own. If he can prove he doesn't lose any weight he'll be ready to go home. He never jaundiced, so he didn't need the UV light. Let's see; Bryant has the apartment just about perfect, Dad is going up today to help lay laminate in the bathroom, just about all that's left. It should be any day now that the family is reunited and home at last. Hooray for everyone!
