Saturday morning updates

Trev's 4 month B-day was Tuesday and he had to go to the Dr. to get his four month shots - yuk! 5 big shots in the legs - He was very brave, but we had a rough night Tuesday night, but have seemed to turn a corner and doing much better. Big news - Trev weighed in at . . . . 9 lbs, 2 ozs!! and is 20 1/2 in long and his head is now 15 1/2 inches around. For preemies, they "catch up" first in their head size, then their weight and the last thing to catch up is their length. Doc said the lungs sound good and he looks very healthy! Yeah! Also, in the last few days he has seemed to turn the corner on sleeping a little longer. He was feeding every hour and a half and mom was becoming delirious and loosing track of days and nights and was picking up pillows thinking it was a baby that needed to be fed! So, we couldn't be more excited that Trevor is learning to eat a little more and sleep longer, sometimes up to four hours, but mostly around 3. Another answer to prayer is that Trev's "red dots" or hemangeonies (he had five found in the NICU) have completely disappeared. The Doc was amazed. So, no liver ultrasound is needed. Finally, the doc said we can take Trevor out a little bit more as long as we protect him from germs as much as possible, especially when around little kids. So, that is exciting! We are going to do a little road trip up to OC this Friday to see some family and close friends.
