Parker is making the move from Level 3 down to the Level 2 ICU....one step closer to coming home. They want to keep him a while longer to monitor his progress and run a few more tests.
They are running genetics tests, vision tests and hearing tests. He weighs 6 pounds and 14 ounces now that the fluid has drained. He is wearing his first newborn shirt and it's huge!
He pooped on me while I was changing his diaper today, which was pretty funny. He's getting better with his bottle feeding and we hope to slowly ween him off of the feeding tube before we go home.
Leah is slowly walking more and we haven't used a wheelchair today! The hardest part is leaving the hospital without our boy. Unfortunately, he won't be able to watch the Aggies beat OSU with me at home this weekend, but I'm keeping him posted on the latest news and how the team is doing!
Thanks to all of you for the thoughts and prayers! We've come to realize that there are hundreds if not thousands of folks out there that we've never met that are supporting us! God is good.
