back in the incubator!!

Well Grants crib stay was short lived! He was only able to regulate his temp for 12 hours after they took him out of the incubator! So back in the box he goes! They just think he doesn't have enough body fat to regulate it on his own. He had dialation on his right kidney a couple weeks ago and they did a follow up test today and it looked great! They also did a brain ultrasound to check on his brain bleeds and we get the results later on today...we hope they are gone! They have to do another echo on his heart, I guess they heard another murmer so they have to make sure nothing major is wrong. He has come such a long way and we are so proud! He weighs 4lb 7oz and looks alot like Jimmy! We hope our stay in the NICU isn't too much longer...we want and need him home! I will update soon with more pics! Love to all!!
