Communication

We have a little communicator on our hands!
That's right! Jackson has been communicating with us more and more. He's been pointing to different toys that he wants to play with, as well as the exersaucer! The excitement with the exersaucer? Jack always had trouble with it because he was so weak and tiny. Now. . .he sits in the middle, moves himself in circles, rocks and even bounces at times! What an improvement! Jack even plays with all of the toys. The best part about this new-found communication? Jack asks to play in the exersaucer several times each day!

He hasn't eaten a thing, but that's ok. I've stopped using the feeding pump during the day due to the recent feeding-tube-came-out-three-times-in-five-days event. Jack eats from the pump overnight. During the day, he's been receiving 3 1/2 ounces 4-5 times a day via syringe. It's called bolus feeding. So far, so good. We'll see what the pediatrician says about this new form of eating when we see her Monday morning.

Anything else? I accidentally threw my cell phone in a poopy trash bag, which was tossed into the outside trash can. I found it, Thank God, the next morning. . .

Oh, and Jack had a bath tonight and DIDN'T THROW A FIT.

And, he's been moving himself all over the floor! What a HAM!

He hasn't eaten a thing, but is just doing wonderful!
