Lots of news

First news is that I got rid of that nose-tube thingie. I gave it a good yank this morning and pulled it out! Doctor said that its fine and they are not replacing it. Whew!

Second, they moved me to a private room. This is because they needed space for more babies in the Infant Special Care Unit, and they wanted a baby that is almost ready for home to get moved to a private room. So now I am in a private room within the ISCU.

Third, I might be going home tomorrow! My mom and dad are very excited. They stayed with me overnight last night and they plan to do so again tonight. Hopefully we'll all go home tomorrow together.

Here is a picture of me that my dad took this morning. No nose tube!


Grandma Barb seems to like me just fine.

Hey Doxey and Cynthia- I just checked to see how Elliott is progressing and he sounds great. I hope that the next time I check on him, he is safely at home. I know this has been a whirlwind few weeks for ya'll, but now the real fun begins.
Much love to Elliott and his parents from the Virginia-Stewart/Loupassi cousins!!
