Another day gone by in the NICU. Andrew was advanced to 6 oral feedings a day. He continues to do well, but is a little inconsistent with the feedings. Andrew did not finish his bottle at the 2pm feeding today. With all things considered the little guy is doing darn well. All of the nurses keep telling us that all of the sudden a lightbulb goes off in their little heads. So I asked Darin tonight if he thought Andrew's lightbulb had gone off. He replied I think he has a dimmer switch. The feedings are taking a little longer because Andrew was born at 29 weeks and does not have the energy stores like a term baby. He still tires very easily. His parents are very proud of him. Darin read Andrew The Three Little Pigs tonight and Andrew enjoyed it. Thanks to Grandpa Rick for helping with the finishing touches on the nursery. The nursery is finally ready and looks beautiful. Andrew is going to read up on the carseat manual this weekend and we are ready to go.
A shout out to Mary Sue for the DELICIOUS chicken tetrazzani and salad.
Thanks to Grandnana Sara for the wonderful peach cobbler and fruit.

Ahhh....Andrew does not have a dimmer switch! Maybe his battery just needs to be changed :-) Sounds like Andrew continues to do great...even if he does get worn out with his feedings!
