Getting Stronger

Things have been pretty crazy this last week and that is why I have not put up an update. I have been driving from Tooele to Layton every day this week. Although it is a long drive, I would not miss this time with Taylon for a minute!!! I can see him growing and changing each day as he comes off things that have been helping him grow. Last Wednesday (January 14th) Taylon was able to come off of his i.v. and also the photo therapy. On Thursday (January 15th) he was able to come off of his feeding tube. I was so happy when this happened, all of these things seemed uncomfortable. On Saturday (January 17th) Taylon's doctor put in an order for the nurses to feed him as much as he wants when he wants. This is the last thing he needed to achieve in order to come home. I asked that Taylon stay a few more days in the hospital to see if he would be able to come off the oxygen, if he can't he'll come home with oxygen and also a CPAP machine that will monitor his oxygen. Here are some pictures of our growing boy.

It was so sweet, Taylon moved his head to look up at his Daddy.
