@1:30 p.m. post surgery day two

it was so good to see you today gage.  so good, it was hard to leave.  you were alert by the time we needed to say goodbye.  maybe a bit groggy but, there was definitely a light in your eyes.  and guess what gage?  you pooped!! this was an exciting noise coming from your tiny body.  i know, gross, but seriously such progress in the right direction.

what else?  after your blood draw they decided to start another IV so you could receive some antibiotics as a safety precaution.  your white blood count was just a bit higher than they like to see so, they want to be careful about infection.  you also have a much smaller bandaid over your incision rather than that large patch of gauze.  and ... a sock on your hand! you were perplexed by this.  staring at the sock, trying to grab at it.  mommy said you were scratching your face all up with the IV tape so they put a sock on your little hand.

you're so sweet little buddy.  we brought your cousins up to see you today.  they wanted to hold your hand and make sure you are okay.  you did not disappoint.

as we were leaving your aunt amanda stopped by.  more visitors who love you.

talk to you soon buddy.

xoxoxo
