Caden’s doing well, his oxygen flow has been reduced from 5 to 4 and they are still suctioning a lot from him. He’s at 3 lb. 14 oz. right now and he’s been having a few apnea & bradycardia’s (hereafter referred to as A&B’s). This is expected, Gena went through the same thing. They grade them on a 0-4 scale.  0 being he recovers on his own. 1 being they have to give him a little shake to remember to breathe. 2 they have to remind him more “vigorously” to breathe. 3 they have to bag him and give him just a whiff of oxygen. 4 they have to bag him for a bit.

As promised, you can click on the thumbnails below to see the pictures of Daddy holding Caden, the gifts our primary made for him and the quilt they made drapped over his isolette.

Geneveive officially starts 1st grade tomorrow with Ms. Jensen as her new teacher. She is very nervous because it’s like the entire ‘first day of school’ experience all over! I say this with a bit of excitement as well because this time, I’ll actually be here for it. So Mommy is particularly happy as well. We’ll let you all know how that goes.
