Calvin got moved this evening to a different unit!! He is doing much better and they have taken out all his lines except the feeding one. I was able to feed him twice, but b/c my milk hasn't come in yet...they supplement after each feeding. He is really laid back, so feeding him is going to take some effort on our part. So, pray that he will take to nursing as soon as my milk comes in. They are thinking that he may get to come home Thursday. This is VERY good. Also pray that I can continue to recover myself. I hadn't realized until tonight how absolutely exhausting it is going to be hauling myself to the Hospital every 4 hours to feed him!!!! I may end up having to go every other feeding.
Dan took this one only minutes after he came out. As you can tell, he still has that just came out look to him(and he's not hooked up to anything yet).
Hannah got to come up Sunday morning and see him before they took him away. She is SO excited to see the baby. I had her records sent over this afternoon, so she is ok-ed to come and see him tomorrow!!
This is his first bath today. He didn't like it. But is is so laid back that he didn't cry too much. He doesn't have a very strong yell (yet).
More to come.

We can't but praise God! He is faithful. Calvin is SOO precious. I wish I could be there and give him a hug. We'll continue to pray for all the details such as nursing and visits. Anne: God will give you the strength, endurance and healing. Calvin will give God the glory due HIS name.
Love in Christ,
Silvia

i'll pray that you'll have enough energy to make the trips, and that he'll be an efficient eater :)
