2 1/2 Weeks Old

Ezra had a great day yesterday, which we are so thankful for! His heart echo showed his PDA is now tiny. They are going to continue watching it for now.
Ezra's lungs come down past his 8th rib, they'd like his lungs to expand past his 9th rib. We are hoping the pressure of the cpap machine will do the trick and expand the lower part of his lungs.
It has been a week since we heard him cry (due to the ventilator) and yesterday he let the whole room know when he was not happy. We were told by one of his nurses that when Ezra is in a soiled diaper he'll let the world know about it! He is feisty, just like his older brothers! They keep calling him a fighter! Which is what we need him to continue doing, fighting......
I am loving my 2-4 hour kangaroo holding sessions everyday! Ezra loves it too! His oxygen requirements drop and he becomes more stable during this time Those hours seem to fly by way too fast! We are anxiously anticipating the day when we don't have to put him back into his hospital bed. 
God continues to sustain us!
