Aiden and I with Santa and Mrs. Claus
Consider this one our Christmas card this year!
With Aiden not being home and with all the ups and downs of life in the NICU it's hard to remember that this is his first Christmas. After my visit today I went out and bought him some Christmas presents and we plan on making sure his first Christmas is special for him and us, too!
I just had to buy this preemie shirt for Aiden for Christmas - too cute!
Other than that, Aiden is doing well today. He is being weened off one of his medications and it is affecting his breathing a little, nothing too bad, just something to watch. He weighed in last night at 2 lbs. 3 oz. so all the milk he is getting is starting to do the trick, several of the nurses that were gone for a few days have commented that he looks bigger and different - one said she is starting to see some little chubby cheeks :) Today he was wide awake for about 10 minutes just hanging out and looking around, I had never seen his eyes wide open like that before - another sign that he is getting older and bigger!

P.S. Aiden wanted me to make sure and say Happy Birthday to his Aunt Sara :)
