Landon, one week old!

Landon had another exciting day of having things removed and improvements. He had the line that went into his left chest removed. This was used to draw blood and to keep an eye on his blood pressure. That was the last line The got a bath today...finally! He hadn't had a bath since the day he was born, so he was in dire need!

As far as eating goes, he has made some improvements. The goal for the day is to get 585 mls, which is just under 20 ounces, into him. That seems to be an impossible feat for him. He struggles to get an ounce in himself in an hour. We were hoping to go home tomorrow, but that won't be possible with the eating expectations. We are okay with being here longer, but that would've been an incredible gift to go home on Christmas. We don't want to rush him and go home too soon.

He was given a different bed today also. Since he is able to maintain his body temperature, he was given a crib to sleep in now.

Probably the most exciting part of the day was when Santa visited!! I was out when he came, but Nick got a picture of Landon's first visit with Santa. He received a teddy bear from Santa.

We had visits from Grandma and Grandpa Bausman, the Fosters, and Aunt Megan, Michael and Taylor. Grandpa spent a lot of time getting him to eat.
