Nathan Update

Poor Nathan is still in the hospital. Molly got to come home this afternoon. The big boys were glad to see mom. Isaac got on a kick a couple of times when he kept repeating, "I want my mom to come home", over and over and over and over. He is very head strong and hard to distract. He almost drove grandma crazy.

I got to hold Nathan last night and we had a little visit. After I left, he ate really, really good and they said that if he continued he would come home today. They even took out his IV. Well he had a couple of good feedings and then was more interested in sleeping than eating. They put a feeding tube in him today and he is a bit jaundaced so he has to stay in for a couple more days to be under the lights. I've been thinking that maybe it wasn't such a good idea to have him born on Grandma Simmons' birthday. I'm sorry Nathan. Anyway, I'm sure he will get over this little set back quickly and be a healthy little guy. We are all anxious to get him home where he belongs. I'm interested to see how Mark and Isaac react to a baby in the house. It will be fun.

OH I hope he gets to go home soon! I can't imagine coming home after having a baby WITHOUT a baby! Tell Molly and Lance Nathan is in my prayers!
