Went in this morning for my daily milk run/check-up and Ethan gained a whopping 2 ounces. The nurse said this is most likely due to the fact that he took two huge poo's after being weighed. So, he may have been up to 4lb, 3oz, but he didn't stay there for long.
The other point the nurse (one that I had not met before) made sure I knew was how cute Ethan is. I understand that parents always think their babies are cute, but for some reason the nurses are always telling us this. I am not trying to proclaim that I have the cutest baby in the world, but rather I am wondering if they tell all parents in the NICU the same thing in an attempt to shed some levity and happiness into the standard daily NICU visit. It would seem entirely possible that the first thing you learn in baby nursing school is that "every baby you encounter is the cutest baby you have ever seen."
So with my wonderment stated, the nurse also told me this morning that all night long random nurses would stop in to see Ethan (nurses that have taken care of him before.) This leads me to two possible explanations - either Ethan is a modern medical wonderment that all persons in the medical field want to see, or, he is a stud. The ladies love Ethan. LL Cool E? (Note - there will be no comments on the two male nurses and their love for Ethan.)
We will do a photoshoot with the good camera this weekend and get some decent pictures up. I am also going to (hopefully) purchase a new TV tomorrow so that E and I can watch sports in high def when he gets out of the hospital. He is very interested to see if the Tigers can make a run in the 2nd half.
