More pictures and an update on Dredyn

I can't believe that Dredyn is almost a week old. He has changed so much. He only weighs 5lbs 5 oz but today he finally drank 1 oz on his own, so we are hoping he will keep that up and soon he will get his feeding tube out and he will be able to come home. We only get to hold him every 3rd meal and since he eats every 3 hours we get to hold him only twice a day which pretty much makes me cry every time we go to the hospital. I keep telling myself that he will be home soon enough and I can hold him all I want. All in all he is doing great and so is the rest of my family.


Just to give you all a idea of how small he is, we measured his head to Matts thumb.






He loves to hold our fingers. He is holding my thumb. His hands and fingers are so small.










He wouldn't take his eyes of Matt. It was so cute.

I tried to get a picture of Brodyn looking through the hole but it wouldn't work. Its a cute picture anyways.










Brodyn loves to hold and kiss Dredyn. He is going to be such a good big brother.



























He tries to pull his tube out and he has suceeded once.






























How could you not love that face.

Congrats! He is so cute! Glad to hear everything went well. I bet it's so hard to leave him at the hospital though! I'm almost 37 weeks now, so I'm hoping she comes soon!! Take care!
