Day 4

Mason had another good day today! His breathing is getting better so the Doctor thinks they can take the CPAP off tomorrow! They also increased his feedings to 15 ml every 3 hours. He's been under the light all day for his jaundice. His skin is looking better, so hopefully they can take that off tomorrow. We don't get to see his beautiful brown eyes very often when he has his eye mask on, so it'll be nice getting rid of that. I was able to do kangaroo care (skin to skin contact) with him for an hour today.

We figured out how to Skype last night with Paula, so we were able to see Richard's mom's side of the family. His Grandpa Arndt is in hospice, so Richard was able to see him. We Skyed with Jess and DJ this morning before school, then again after school with Jess, DJ, Lily and Levi! They got to see Mason for the first time!

Grandma and Grandpa Kral came up to visit and eat supper with us this afternoon!

Thank you again for all of your kind words and prayers! Also, please keep Richard's Grandpa in your prayers.
