Look Mom, No Canula

The last couple of days, Tyler has made a great effort to tell us he doesn't want anything sticking up his nose anymore. Every time we taped the canula to his face, he would find creative ways to pull it off. We've seen it in his mouth, eyes, closer to his ear than nose, and finally wrapped around his neck. Since he is keeping is oxygen saturation in the high 90's we will leave it off him. He is still on the monitor and we've got the tank right next to him just in case he plays games.

He really is starting to settle into a newborn routine with his eating, sleeping, and pooping. I'm still very busy in the morning getting everyone ready for the day, but I'm starting to have a hour or two in the afternoon to sit and take a nap as well. Tyler's head is full again, but we are not seeing any clinical problems. He eats very well and has great alert times. He can prop his head up for a few seconds and move it with ease from side to side when he is propped up on my shoulder.

We still don't have exact dates for the MRI or surgery yet. I hope to know Monday so we have a minute to pack.
