Day 27 Michael is doing great!!

Michael is on his second day of feeding and we have re-introduced bottle feeding to him. He has taken this on like a champ and has no issue drinking 4ml's of breast milk quickly. He is digesting his feeding pretty well and his belly it tolerating the re-introduction of food. Our hope is that he'll be closer to home by Christmas which will be a nice change for all of us.

Michael is now weighing 3 lbs 10 ounces - a full pound heavier then at birth. We can't believe he'll be a month old tomorrow!

Michael Jon--I cannot believe you are one month old today! That is so wonderful. And the fact that you are doing so well is not only a result of all the love and care that surrounds you, but what now appears to be your trademark: feistiness! I can't wait to see you soon.
Love,
Aunt Kate
