TWO IN A ROW
Things are going well today, nothing really new. Justin gained 5 grams today. I am guessing we won't have any large weight gains anytime soon because he burns more calories eating now. We didn't change any of his orders today although he did get some drops for one of his eyes. He has a clogged tear duct (not a big deal AT ALL) and it just makes his eye water more than it should. So, we got him some drops and Dr. Mary taught me how to massage around his eye to get the duct to open up. The big news for the day is that he did two full feedings in a row. We have been doing every other but today he did a full feeding for me at noon and then he bottle for the nurse at 3. Then, by the time I got there tonight he was so tired he didn't even think about waking up for his 6pm cares or feeding. Oh well. That would have been three feedings in a row...kind of a lot to ask at this point. I'm not quite sure how the feedings will go tomorrow. He might be pretty tired from his eye exam but we'll see! Keep your fingers crossed for fully mature eyes tomorrow!!

I love the picture of you looking down at him and he's looking up at you. Precious!
