More visiting and waiting. Might take him off oxygen today. No more scalp IV so he’ll have to finish his antibiotics with shots. Only a couple more. Nice to see his little head! He’s got little bruised on hands, feet, etc., where they have to stick him. I had been keeping track of how many times I got stuck in the hospital and had decided to award myself a dollar per stick, with IV sticks going for 2 dollars. Now that seems so insignificant and petty! If I could take all the sticks for him!

We went to see Shrek 2 at the theater and I thought it was great, but I was so distracted the whole time thinking about PJ. I knew that when he got here, I would be putting him first, but I thought that was a logical thing that happened. I didn’t realize my whole heart would get rearranged and who cares about anything else right now!

Chatting in the NICU:

Holding hands … PJ in a ‘milk coma’…
