Little Evan is 5lbs 1oz this morning. Daddy came with mommy to the hospital this am to help feed the wee one. The nurses told us that for the second day in a row Evan had been impatiently waiting for his mom, so I'm going to re-adjust my schedule and come in 20 minutes earlier so that he's not waiting (and crying) so long - we need that energy for eating after all! One of Evan's first nurses at BGH just returned from a week long vacation and said that Evan looks great and has grown a lot since she's seen him last - it's nice to hear that he is improving! The other day during hospital rounds I heard a nurse refer to Evan and another little preemie as "growers", a term to describe low birth weight babys who have no medical complications, but just need to put on body fat.
Our dear friends Dan and Allison delivered a little boy yesterday, Grayden Joseph Daniel, who weighed in at just over 8lbs. Can't wait to set up a playdate for the boys when they get a little older!
