Hey world. Christopher peeks out from under his "tent" as he is watched over by his nurse. He seems attentive, but it's hard to tell sometimes. He does not have control over his eyes or any movement yet, however I do think he can hear me and look my way at times. Maybe I'm just hoping but maybe I'm right.
He is strong today, taking in 16cc of my milk and some extra calorie packs through his feeding tube. They think he lost a little weight from yesterday but I'm not sure if that was only fluid or not. We hope that is the case because as much milk as he is taking he should be starting to gain weight again. He has grown to 14.25 inches, so that is an increase of 2.25 inches from birth. I believe the prayers are working, so please continue to keep us in your prayers. This is a long haul for us as I will also be going back to work next week and that will be very difficult for all of us.
