staying home :)

Dr. Coburn was very pleased with Athan's condition this a.m. There is still some swelling, but it is down from yesterday. And Athan is eating well, alert and interactive after he eats, sleeping well, filling diapers, and holding his sugars up. We will continue to watch him closely over the weekend - especially after we give his growth hormone tonight - and of course go to the ER if there are any big indicators that he needs immediate attention. Otherwise we will call and report to Dr. Coburn on Monday morning about how the weekend went, and go from there.

On top of regular newborn-in-the-house-so-no-one-sleeps, it's tough to rest much when you have to prepare for a possible hospital trip (emotionally, logistically, etc.), so while Athan is asleep and Morgan is running and errand with her dad, I'm going to take a nap! :)

Still checking and praying for your fam. Feel free to drop Morgan off for a play date at the Crisps any time you all need or just want to have a break. God bless that little man and his growth...
