What could he be dreaming about? We came in today and found David all wrapped up in a blanket burrito, snoozing away, looking quite content. It was nice to see. He had eaten a hour or so before we arrived, so he had all his needs met. Julie picked him up and held him for a while. That's when he did his practice smile ( see picture #2). He continues to improve. We hope he'll be home in just a couple more days. He's keeping his food down, and learning to latch onto a bottle nipple. Once the docs feel he can competently nurse, he'll be heading home!
No word yet on the brain scan which was done yesterday. I think that is a good sign. I mean, if there were something bad, some treatment or phone call should have been in order. No? Of course not. I've been in medicine long enough to know that some tests just don't get read/interpreted as soon as we'd like. Julie and her Mom are at the hospital now, so they might get word.
Yes, Julie's Mom arrived on time and very excited to be in Cali. She brought a few things for the little one and Isabelle too. Isabelle got a SpongeBob doll, and a Bob the Builder doll, and some kind of weight management training doll as well ( picture #3). Isabelle was very happy about those new additions to our household.

John and Julie,
Thanks for keeping us all updated with the blogs. I'm checking it daily and am so happy to see little David looking healthier and happier every day. Can't wait till he's safe and sound at home.
Love, leslie
