Evening update



So, a pretty good update to end the day. When I went in this afternoon, Addison was moved to his new little house. He's in an isolette and is no longer covered with plastic wrap! His oxygen was down to 22% even though he was annoyed with being moved. The doctor was getting ready to go into a delivery so I wasn't able to talk to him about the echo results. I called Ian as I was leaving the hospital and he had just gotten off the phone with the doctor. The doctor said that they did find a very small opening in Addison's ductis but that it wasn't big enough or causing any problems to warrant any type of medication or surgery!!
Riley is still under the plastic wrap but he will be getting his arterial line taken out tomorrow and then he'll be able to move to an isolette. His oxygen was turned down to 24%. He's still peeing a lot and is otherwise stable.
Both of the boys are still out from under the bili lights so I was able to get pictures of them without their masks on. Riley is still under the plastic wrap so I apologize that the pictures aren't very clear. Hopefully I'll be able to get better pics tomorrow.

Oh I'm in love. They are so adorable. My eyes got a little teary looking at their pictures!

I just washed the black sling. I may stop over this weekend to the NICU to see if you are there. I will be there this weekend for clinicals...so I might as well stop up. You just can't laugh at the uniform!

The offer of ANYTHING YOU NEED...still stands!

Anything you need let us know.

You are def a stronger woman than me. It seems that you are handling yourself with such grace and patience - I am in awe.

They are in our prayers!
Coley, Kevin & the girls...
