We are moving on down....to the liters per minute! Noah got turned down from 4.0 LPM to 3.5 LPM today! How exciting! So far, he has been doing very well with tolerating the change. There was a lot done today. He had an eye exam today and everything appeared to be fine, his LPM was reduced, and he had some blood work done to see how high/low his hermadocrite was. Everything turned out fine. His doctor said that he may need a transfusion, but he is holding off on it until he knows for sure that the hermadocrite level continues to dwindle.

In other news, today was my first day back at work. Man that was rough trying to get up at 6:45 this morning! My day went by pretty well though, but knowing that I was going to get to see my baby at the end of the day made it all worth it! Oh man...I need to get some sleep!

Noah gained 2 more ounces today! He is such a good boy. I'm so excited for him...and for us as parents! Keep it up handsome :-)
