Back to our routine???

It’s been a tough two weeks…mainly stressful on us as Jacob has been recovering. It truly is amazing to see how quickly they bounce back from surgery!

He had the catheter removed today and the doctor says that she is amazed at how well he has healed and said “It looks great!”

Jacob went right back to his routine tonight…bottle at 7:45pm and was ready to be laid down by 8:15pm. Not a people out of him as he rolled over on his side and inserted his thumb into his mouth. It should be a quiet night as we don’t have to wake him to give him medicine, change his diaper, and/or check on the catheter. Ahhh…it seems like so long ago that we had a restful night! (Maybe I shouldn’t jinx it.)

Anyways…baths will have to continue 3 times a day for 6 more weeks. He has an antibiotic to finish up over the next 3 days and then no more medicine other than ointment to help with the healing.

Thanks for all you thoughts, prayers, and words of encourage. And thanks to everyone who helped out — give us a break by taking Connor away for a few hours or even a over-nighter. We appreciated it!
