They were going to wait a few days until they put Ray San back on the CPAP. Well he had other plans as usual. Apparently he extubated himself. He didn't pull the tube completely out, but he did pull it out part way. They decided to take it out the rest of the way and put him on CPAP. That was at 5 tonight. He has not had any episodes and is doing fantastic. Such great news.
He is also 2 lbs. 5 oz. now. They are feeding him 3 ccs of my milk on a constant drip feed. I think it is that much per hour. They are shooting for a weight gain of .5 of an ounce to 1 ounce a day.
I think I mentioned it before, but Ray San has also really been opening his eyes a lot. He's such a cutie.
Here are some pictures from tonight's CPAP attempt.
Eyes Open!!
Our First Picture Together =]
Here's a short video Ray took of Ray San reacting to Ray talking to him.
For fun, here is our other baby. It is hard to tell, but she is sleeping in a box on top of my clothes. This is her new hiding spot.

The pictures and video are great! Let Ray San know he has a group in Boston cheering and celebrating every little weight gain! Give him my love, Dianne
Fattening up! Good deal.
I hope this round on the CPAP takes so that you can hold him soon!
Good to see Karma, she looks all tuckered out.
