Sunday Rest

3/2/14  6:00pm

Carter has had a fairly restful day, with the exception of some visitors singing to him and reading him stories which he loved.  They are continuing to wean his ventilator and his blood gasses have been doing well with this.  He did get his blood transfusion today that went in over 4 hours.  Katie and I both changed one of his diapers today and if you think it looks small on the picture you should try slipping one up under his little behind.  Katie did such a good job.  She is a great Mommy.  Then Daddy got to do one a couple hours later and Baby Carter must have known to save his surprise for me in the form of meconium.  Needless to say Nurse Alison had to step in and assist.  Carter 1 Daddy 0.  Carter also got to have his mask off for a little bit today and once it went back on he realized it wasn't actually attached to his face so he has been grabbing at it ever since as you can see in the picture today.  He will have another cardiac echo in the morning to see if the PDA has closed and if it has he will be able to start feedings again.  Prayers for that.
