Checked with Braxton's nurse this morning... She said he was doing awesome and that he is looking great. How reassuring.
~ He is still at 30% for oxygen... LAZY (meaning he is just not taking as deep of breaths as he should be).
~ His bili-level has dropped from 13.5 down to 11.7 so that's great.
~ He is still "pee-ing" quite a bit so that too will help lower his bili-rubin level as well as continue to get rid of the extra fluid in his body.
~ She said he is really ready to start eating - they will be starting that as soon as they get "orders" from the dr.
~ His weight continues to go down (which is okay) - he is now down to 8 pounds 5 ouces.
~ Here are the pictures that I took yesterday while I was holding him and I attempted to take some while he was awake but he has already figured out how to close his eyes when the camera is in front of him. Ha ha ha... Thanks Again for all of the help that we have received with the boys, food, thoughts, prayers, offers, etc... You have no idea how much it means and how much it's greatly appreciated.
Have a GREAT DAY!!! Craig, Tifanie, Payton, Brooks, & Braxton
Taking the nuk like a pro...
Look at all of my "mess" (wires and tubes)
Lil Stinker was awake - but wasn't impressed with the camera.

Great news. He is just beautiful.
He looks great tiff!!! Sounds like they are taking good care of him...make sure to take care of yourself too! I'm looking so forward to the day that I get to read the entry that your new family of five is home together!!! Take care!
That Nuk looks huge (or his face looks small!) He really is a beautiful baby.
Hi Tiff,
I just read your entries from the last week...what a rollercoaster of emotions. I am so happy to hear that Braxton (cute name!) is improving and soon you will be able to bring him home! Take care,
Erin
