Tyler's First Day Back To Work

Today is Tyler's first day back at work. We stayed up at the hospital last night so he could say good morning to Avi and Deacon before heading back to work. When we got to the NICU this morning, Deacon was waiting for him to change his nice BIG poopy diaper. As Tyler was changing him, he was still pooping, so he went through two diapers this morning! Tyler and I were both pleased because his digestive system seems to be digesting my milk just fine :-).

Avi was put back on the CPAP this morning. Since she's been back on the CPAP, her apnea events have stopped. The doctors are pretty amazed that she went 16 days off the ventilator. They will also be giving her her first blood transfusion this afternoon.

Avi's digestion seems to be doing well. We're waiting for the surgeon to review her this afternoon and then the neonatologist will make a decision as to whether or not to put her back on my milk.
