A Little Elbow Room

Over the weekend, Luke earned himself a little extra room and was able to ditch his cramped isolette to a shiny new hospital crib. He's been doing well at maintaining his body temperature outside of the isolette, so it looks like he'll be able to stay in there. It's nice for Stacy and I, because it's a lot easier to pick him up to hold him and feed him without having to maneuver him out of the little isolette door. He also has a mobile we brought from home and a little musical turtle thing (from the hospital) that can give him a little entertainment too.
He's also continuing to learn how to bottle feed, but is still getting the hang of it. It's been hit or miss as sometimes he's been able to take his whole feeding and other times he only takes a few ML's before tiring out or just losing interest, in which case they just give him the rest through his NG (feeding) tube. With a little time, he'll get it all figured out and he'll be growing like a weed.
