| Trying to wake up! |
Joshua has had a good day. He weighed in at 4 lbs, 13 oz!! He probably would have made it to 5 lbs if he hasn't had a massive poop right before they weighed him. It took 3 of us to get him all cleaned up, in fresh clothes, and clean bedding on his crib. He even needed a bath because of it, even though he had just gotten one last night. He got his first mohawk last night after his bath. We tried to do it again tonight, but were unsuccessful.They're testing his hematocrit tonight. We really need for his immature cells to develop into red blood cells.
We tried to nurse this afternoon and again tonight, but he just wasn't that interested today. Maybe tomorrow.

| About to get a bath. |
Specifics to pray for:
That his red blood cell count will be higher this week than last week.
That he will feed well when given the opportunity to breast feed and will be awake and ready to go!
He continues to gain weight.
Blessings and wisdom for the NICU staff.
