Dylan is doing much better this weekend. His infection is still there but getting better. He has really started to pee out some of the fluid so he doesn't look so puffy and his weight today is 4 pounds 3 ounces. He has been able to lay back on his belly which he loves!!! His vent settings are now down to the lowest they can be before they take the tube out and put him back on C-PAP. He will surely love getting that tube out! Hopefully some time this week but the doctors want to be very sure before they do it, they don't want to have to re intubate him again. He is eating again, 4 cc's every 6 hours and tolerating them well. So basically we just wait for the infection to clear up completly and him to grow even more! He is more active now and hopefully this week mommy and daddy can hold him again. He is smiling and opened his eyes for the first time in 4 days, it was very nice to see them especially knowing he is feeling better. So we are on the road to going home and that is what we want. Prayers are definetly working and little buddy is still putting up a real big fight which we love~
