Sleepy head
Bryce gained another 2.5 oz yesterday!!! That's a huge gain for a little guy! Now up to 3 lbs 5.8 oz. Even the nurses are commenting on how big he's getting.
Bryce is still having some difficulty with his apnea. Yesterday he was taken off the CPAP for 8 hours and had some problems. Today has been better so far and we're hoping it was just a fluke thing yesterday. The doctor also called me today and to inform me that he is doing exceptionally well with is weight and he is also almost able to maintain his own body temperature. They had to keep turning down his temp in the isollette because he was too hot (this means that soon he will be moved from the incubator to an open bassonette. ) The doctor did however have some not-so-good news, he heard a small heart murmur today but assured me that it was no big deal and would most likely go away on its own. Heart murmurs are very common in preemies (but still it's just another thing Kyle and I have to worry about). Please keep our little man in your prayers!!! I just know that's what is helping him to no end!

He is so gorgeous!!!! Keep up the weight gain Bryce - you are such a trooper & doing so well. I can't wait to see you toddling around in the Nursery!
This blog is terrific - thanks so much for sharing - I'll definitely be back often!
Seeing Bryce almost makes me want to work in the nursery again!! Oh my ... did I really just say that? He's just precious! There's still a long road ahead though, so I'll keep praying as we watch your little miracle grow each day! I'm amazed by God's creation.
