The nurses told mommy and daddy to bring in some clothes and blankets for me to wear.
Time to eat again!
I didn't finish all of my bottle so we have to use the feeding tube. It is important that I gain weight.
Another family picture.
I'm just soooo cute!
I eat every 3 hours. I am doing well and gaining weight, maybe I can go home soon.
Yeah! I gained weight!
Do you think it is enough to let me go home? The doctor told mommy & daddy not yet.
Pretty in pink!
Daddy does a good swaddle job on me. I'm nice and warm and ready to take a nap!
I love my mommy & daddy!
