1 Kilo

Hello everyone, Dad here. Today has been a very busy day. I was back and forth to the airport twice today. Once to take Grandma Edwards to the airport at 4 am and the second time around 2pm to pickup my parents. So both grandma and grandpa Menken are now here and really enjoying getting to see their first grandchild.

Well we got a lot of news for you tonight about Edward. First off, he has finally joined the Kilo club. He has more then double his weight which is a very good start. Now we just have to pack about another 3 pounds on him before he will be able to come home with us. Today we also found out that tomorrow they are going to go ahead and attempt to move him up to a high pressure nasal cannula. They have started him on Caffeine and steroids again to help build him up for the move. Please pray for him and the everyone that will be working on him tomorrow. If the high pressure nasal cannula does not work they will have to reintibate him with a larger tube. Well that is about it until tomorrow.

    Mom looks soooo happy to be able to hold him. I know she's been looking forward to this for a long time now. Can't wait till it's my turn. Only a few more weeks.
