March 1st

I cannot believe it is March 1st. Time seems to move so slow at times, but in retrospect, it is amazing to me that it is already March. We are expecting/hoping for Landon to come home in 5-6 weeks which would put us in the month of April. I really can’t wait for April. Landon continues to do very well. Today has, so far, been a repeat of yesterday. Landon is down 5 grams again and his cannula pressure remains at level 2. He is just doing so darn well, we are so proud of him. The weight loss is no biggie and we are relieved they are keeping his pressure at 2 (last time they dropped him too fast, his lungs partially collapsed). However, things change in the NICU so quick that by the time we see him tonight his pressure may be down to 1 1/2. Whatever the pressure, we know Landon will do well because his desats are so few (if he gets them at all). Landon continues to give signals that he wants a bottle. Besides still trying to dislodge his feeding tube, he is beginning to suck very well on a preemie pacifier that his Aunt Kelly gave him. It is so cute to watch him try so hard to get food out of the pacifier that is almost as large has his whole face. Just keep growing Landon; someday you won’t believe how small you really were.
