So he's not going home tomorrow. But he is on the countdown to home! His nasal tube is out. He's breast feeding like a maniac. He's got to show continued weight gain while breast feeding. I'm still staying the night tonight to try 24 hours of feeding. It's not far off now. The doctors said a 5 day watch, but honestly, I can't see why he'd be here for that long. He's just as focused on getting out of here as I am!

Adam keeps saying that he's looking forward to upgrading our baby to the wireless model. Ha! All this baby stuff - changing the diaper, cleaning, dressing, snuggling, feeding - will be SO much easier when there aren't 4 different monitor wires and leads attached to him. Sheesh.

Oh! I'm reading a great book for all you DIY mamas out there: My Mother Wears Combat Boots: A parenting guide for the rest of us by Jessica Mills. It's got info from pregnancy through age 5. So far, so good. I like her laid back, realistic attitudes, while aiming for high goals - like raising an independent kid, keeping low cost and low on the consumption scale, being more environmentally conscious, etc. Check it out mamas.
