These pictures are from my cell phone so they aren't that great. His billi rueben went back up to 15:( So back under the lights we go. He absolutely would have nothing to do with the googles so we had to prop up a burp cloth over his eyes. He is off forced air and is breathing room air at 90 to 100 percent oxygen. Yea JaCoby!
They had to put his IV in his head because he keeps pulling it out! Monkey:) I got to nurse him twice today and he latched right on. Great job buddy!
On Monday JaCoby's billi rueben dropped to 13, so he was off the lights! Yipee! He was at 2 1/2 liters of forced air and the oxygen they were giving him was between 20 to 30 percent. His feeding went up to 12 cc every 3 hours.
This is his bed. The nurse's that take care of him are wonderful! I love LDS Hospital.
It was so fun to see him awake! He is so sweet. Now I have 4 boyfriends!
This was JaCoby on Sunday July 20th. He developed jaundice. Which means his liver is overloaded so his skin turned yellow. This is very common in preemies and not very serious if you get the right treatment. The lights help drop their billi rueben. His count was at 15. The lights don't hurt their eyes they just use them so he can sleep because the lights are very bright.
He was very comfortable. He loved the heat from the lights.
I'm afraid that someday he's going to use that toe to pick his nose! Or one of his siblings nose:)
I HATE seeing all these lights and tubes attached to him!
He is SOOO little compared to my 9 lbs 1 oz Kaden!!!

The proud Big Brother
Isabel's new baby:)
He's a little angel
I can't wait to bring you home Sweetheart!
She was so excited for a day dedicated to JUST her!
And of course she got spoiled:)
Happy Birthday Sweetheart! I can't believe you're 5!
m Uncle Steven on the caterpillar of death! And darling Abby. I love her to pieces!
Totally kidding! He is marrying my beautiful sister-in-law Krystal! Congrats you two!
There is the fun boat in the background and my cute Father-in-law Mike. Krystal is the one wearing the hat and the one with her back to the camera is Kellie, my Mother-in-law. What the lake does to this family is a phenomenon!
Here's a better picture of cute Krystal.
And last but certainly not least...my sweet baby Hacka(as Isabel would say it)
So here we are again!!! Kaden just had to have a picture of him under the water like Isabel! Those two are fish!
No he doesn't go under the water but he has to be the same as the other two. So googles it is!
