Here is Henri in the open crib, as you can see, it hasn't seemed to phase him in the least.
Cuddle time with his daddy. Sooo comfy.
This morning was a huge one for Henri. The neonatologist decided that Henri deserved a change of address in the NICU. They moved him from and isolette today into an open crib. They also changed his feed order to read that he needs a minimum of 1 oz of breast milk every three hours, but he can have what he wants to make him happy. This morning at his 0800 feed, he took a whopping 50 ml's on his own! The doctors continue to be amazed with his progress and they have asked us to bring his car seat in so that they can perform a car seat challenge on him. This is just one step closer to being home, and it requires him to be on a monitor while in the car seat to ensure that he will tolerate it. Josh and I don't have our hopes up too high, but we are hopeful that in the next week and a half Henri may be able to come home for the first time! The nursery here at home continues to make progress and Josh will be putting colored paint on the walls this weekend! We may even have the time to order a crib?

I think Henri continues to amaze us all. He is such a strong lil guy...and a piggy too. I pray for his continued progress.
