Hi Everyone,
Yesterday was a big day for Bryce, it was his first day wearing clothes!!! He looks so cute in them! Of course nothing fits but its still cute. I had to take pictures with my disposable camera because his daddy had my camera for work, but I have it back now so I will take some pictures tomorrow to post. It was a pretty quiet day yesterday, I was there most of the day, rounds were quick no big changes, just the same old talk about how Bryce has Chronic Lung Disease and that they want to try getting him off the vent. They talked about steroids as a possibility, but he has to gain more weight first. Also he got his first vaccination Hepatitis B shot. His nurse was Anne today (a primary) and she felt bad that she had to give it to him, he did cry but I contained him right after the shot so he only cried for a second. The worst part is you can't hear him cry because of the tube in his throat but you can see it.. Its so sad. :( I hate when he cries. So thats about it for yesterday.. Oh I did find out I am going back to work June 4th.. Boy does time fly! Its been a month already! The rest of the fam is well, I went to Nicole's dance observation last night they did great as always! Almost recital time....

Anyway, today I went to the hospital and it was another BIG day... Bryce has hit 2 pounds!! I never thought I'd see the day. I did get to hold him today and I got top hold him normal, you know just in my arms, and I could stare at him the whole time! It was wonderful, he did good until towards the end, he desatted a few times so we put him back thinking he just didn't want to be out, but as soon as we moved him we realized it wasn't that at all... He had pooped and he is very sensitive and he didn't want poopy pants and thats why he desatted. Once I changed him he was fine again. He had a new outfit on today its so stinking cute! He looks like a tiny old man! Love it! So in rounds today they decided its time to start steroids... This is good and bad. Its good because with his chronic lung disease it will help get him off the vent, its bad because it has many side effects, slows growth, can damage brain, can mask infection etc.... so I don;t know we'll see. Let's pray none of these happen. So for now thats it. We have some big tests coming up so please pray for him! Thanks!
