Today I dressed Bridger in clothes (usually he is just in a diaper because of all the lines coming off of him) I am starting to work on his
temperature regulation again. Since he is always naked in the hospital, his body regulates its temp without clothes. So when I do get him dressed, he overheats easily. So he is getting dressed now, I turn the thermostat down and slowly turn it back up as his body adjusts. He looked so cute, he had shorts and a t-shirt and cute flip-flops. I'll post the pictures when I get them downloaded. Otherwise a pretty quiet day, they adjusted Bridger's oxygen a bit, changed one of his medications from IV to go in his g-tube, and we got to take a nap together on a
playmat on the floor. Not too bad. So just taking things slow- which is fine by us!

I'm so glad to hear things are continuing in the right direction. It is about time you guys get to relax a little. I can't wait to see the pictures, Bridger sounds adorable. Flip flops? Did he keep them on? : )
Love to you all!
Heavenly Nap...I think that sounds absoulutly amazing. I am so glad that you got to nap with your baby. I was going to come visit you on Thursday but I got kicked out of the picu. I am going to try and come some night with no baby Daxton.
Flip flops!? I didn't know they made them so small. Although...if his feet look anything like his head...
By the way, This little boy looks CUTE in big boy clothes...flip flops and all. And, I think that the rule in the Smith family, is that you have to have a slightly big head to hold all those brains. Isn't it true, the more brains, the smarter the child? I think it applies!! When Danny was little, we used to tease him and say, "Hey Dan, where are all your fans?" To which he would reply,"I don't got fans, I got BRAINS!!" OK, so he was only about 3 or 4, and maybe just a little bit "brain-washed." Still.....Keep up the good work Bridger! We love you, mommy, and daddy! Love, Nana
