Another successful weight gain! Isaac is now weighing 2 lbs 11.7 ounces. He is still on the high flow oxygen as well. When I arrived to the NICU this morning Isaac was so alert. He was trying to open his eyes and look around. As I held him this morning face to face I saw how slender his head truly is. I think that is an Iverson characteristic. I really like seeing his dark head of hair. I hope it stays dark. His face is a little scrunchy as it needs to fill out by gaining more weight. It was so good to just see him free from the nose tube, the hat and the chin strap. Still working on getting our camera fixed. Hoping to have new photos for everyone soon.
As for the fish front and Arianna... we will be adding a new member to the family this week. She has earned her fish. Nena (grandma) and I set up the fish tank tonight... not realizing it needs 2 to 3 days to filter and work out all the icky stuff before you can get a fish... I think Nena added a few good behavior points while I wasn't here this morning in order to help Arianna. I keep telling Ari that Nena is one of her greatest advocates and that she better be nice to her all the time!
Congratulations Arianna on earning your fish. Scrunchy? I think that's a good name for the fish. Do NOT tell Isaac you think he has a slim head and scrunchy face. Hahahaha
