Things were well today. We went to see Brendan first and he is look MUCH better than yesterday. The swelling has gone down quite a bit and he has better color.
Today the only changes are that they are weaning him off of the Fentanyl and that they are reducing his ventilator settings. He had a good day and is fairly comfortable.
We got a visit from his Physical Therapist who works on helping position him and is teaching him the same things that Trevor got to learn last week about “finding his center” and feeling boundaries. He got another beanie baby toy to help position him and keep him comfortable.
The cardiologist is really pleased with his progress and wants him to have a few more days like today to make improvements.
Trevor had his first appointment with his pediatrician today. He gets an A+ on his checkup. He is a super star, doing very well. They measured him today at 20inches and 5lbs 11oz! He is growing fast!
He is keeping to his schedule fairly well too. He still likes to be swaddled, but when his nap is over, he is an expert at escaping the blanket completely. I am going to have to set up a time lapse camera to see how he does it.
Here he is waiting at the doctor’s office:
Trevor shaking off the last of his swaddle blanket and making his cute sounds:
We haven’t had our computer up for 1 week because of the move and no phonejacks working. But your boys and the two of you have been on my mind everyday. This was the 1st place I checked when I was up and running today. Your boys are beautiful. And all 4 of you are so strong. I’m glad Gramma is there to help for awhile. I just wanted to tell you how much your story means to my family. God Bless.
Good Morning Everyone!! What wonderful news! Just love the pictures! Miracles are wonderful, aren’t they!! The boys look great, am hoping that all of you are breathing a little easier!! The East Coasters send their love, healing thoughts and I am so looking forward to the day that I can meet the family!! Hugs, hugs, and more hugs!! 🙂
Trevor looks so cute for his doctor’s appointment and can’t believe how tall he is getting already.
Brendan’s color does look better even in the picture. Continued blessings to all 5 of you including Grandma who is taking such good care of Trevor.
Good Morning Aylesworth family. It is so wonderful to hear such great news all around. Brendan is looking better, color and all. So glad to hear that Trevor got a good grade at the pediatrician. Continued blessings your way.
*waves hi* good to see you guys. When you get time post a pic of Trevor between his parents so we can see who he looks like most, I think Bill seeing him by himself. Continued healing thoughts coming your family’s way!!
