Life in Ohio...

I'm pretty sure I don't have any new pictures - mostly because he looks pretty much the same. and his condition is pretty much the same too.

his breathing is okay - not great - but where it's expected to be. He's still on the CPAP and seems to be doing just fine with low pressure on that. His feeding is going great! He's moved up to 11 ML today every three hours and he seems to be tolerating it just great for now - what a hungry little boy!

As is common with early kids, they did a head ultrasound to check for the possibility of bleeding between the two hemispheres of his brain. We felt pretty lucky that Isaac had none b/c it is common. and we're doubly lucky that Jonah has none as well!! so that's great! It gives us room to worry less about crazy birth defects, etc. and focus on worry about him growing & breathing.

His heart problem seems to have cleared up with the medication as well. So far so good! Little Jonah is just about the squirmiest thing ever... yesterday when the nurse came by he had scooted himself all the way out of his little "nest" and had his head right up against the side of the isolette! He's always twitchy & likes to "break out" of whatever snuggled up position he's put it!

Cindy & I are excited to welcome Isaac home tonight for a few days - we miss him a ton. We're also both pretty exhausted - I'm having a real tough time making any headway at all at work for sure. but last night we got to celebrate our 6 year Anniversery (which is today) by going out for dinner to the hospital cafeteria and then going to downtown to se Cirque Du Soliel's "Corteo" which was AWESOME!! We had great seats and such a fantastic time - it was so fun!

In other news... gas is like $3.20/gallon now and I think Rosie O'Donnel is leaving "The View"

That's all from the land of the Pontier family!
