Update.

Gavin is 5 lbs 8 oz today and doing a tiny bit better. All of his feeding except his 930 one were not the best. He is still desating and they are having to up his o2 flow and put the little mask on his face to get him breathing again. They did do some suctioning on him last night and his airway was clear of "boogies", so it was not that. They were able to talk to the doctor and he is not to concerned, considering that Gavin is still only 34.5 weeks and typically babies don't really start feeding like he has till about 36 weeks, so they of course are keeping a good eye on him. He still is loosing color but they are there to help him out of it and I guess it is helping me learn what to watch for, I can see his numbers dropping but now I know when his color is not good and what to do. We are required to take a CPR class before we can take him home. I will be glad to know CPR just hope I never have to use it on any of my babies. My momma went up with me on his feedings so she was able to see what he was doing. She held him and as soon as the machine went off, she was ready to throw him back at me. He scared his Grandma. I'm so glad to have my Mom and Mother-in-law so close to me and grateful that they are wanting and willing to take the CPR class as well. I love my family and I am still so thankful to them for all they have done and are still willing to do for us. Love you all.

Lots of Posts and pictures. Update on Gavin.

Look at how cute he is!! Oh I just LOVE him.

What are these things??

He kept trying to pull out his 02

Samurai Gavin, Hi Ya!!

Gavin is not doing so well on his feedings, he was for a while but it may have all caught up to him. Yesterday they pulled his Ng tube(feeding) and he was doing fine all up until today at his 530 and 930 feedings. He is now waking up and telling the nurses he is hungary, so about every 4 hours. My mom went up to his 1100 feeding and he did good. Daddy went up to his 200 feeding and that's when they told him they had changed his feeding to when he wants to feed, which is the last step in the feeding process. So assuming that he kept doing so good on his feeding that he would probably be hime by this weekend. OMG!!(gosh) So soon. Well that was until Mommy showed up for his 530 feeding, he decided to put on a show and scare the crap put of me. He started crying for his bottle so i gave it to him and he started scarfing it down and forgetting to breath, usually he can pull himself out of these episodes but not this time. He kept destating and loosing color, he got to 69 and starting looking a little blue to me, so his nurse grabbed him from me and started shaking him to repsond, it took him a minute but he eventually came out of it. SCARY!!! Becky his nurse says,"Well if he keeps this up it looks like he will be here a bit longer." So I came back up for his 930 feeding just to make sure that his episode earlier was just a one time thing, nope he kept destating, little stinker, so they are going to order a few labs and tests to be ran in the morning. It could be as little as dried boogers in his airway to having another blood transfusion. So lets hope for the Boogers!! Those are easy to suck out. I will update as soon as we know more.

Aunt Sara got to hold Gavin for the first time on Saturday.

It was finally warm enough to fill up this little pool and let the girls play outside. They were so excited to be out.

My girls!

No NG tube

Looking at my Daddy.

Daddy feeding me for the frist time without my NG tube(feeding tube). They took it out yesterday. Look at how cute his little face is. One more tube out. Yeah!! There is always a possibility that would have to put it back in, but let's hope not.

Mommy changing me and I peed all over. I think she forgets I have a sprinkling system and it works good.

First bottle

Here are pictures from Gavin's first feeding. One of his favorite nurses Jan is in the background. We love her, she takes such good care of me.

Look at me and my first bottle!

1 month old.

Our little boy is doing remarkably well. He is now 5 lbs 5.5 oz. Today Gavin is a month old and for his month birthday he decided that he wanted to get his feeding tube out and be able to bottle feed every feeding, so guess what, he got what he wanted!! They took out his feeding tube at around 2 today and he is bottle feeding every 3 hours. His next step is to wake up on his own and let the nurses know he is hungary, and then if he does all this very well they can't see why he won't be home in about a week for sure no more than 2 weeks. Babies have done so well so fast and relapsed and we are so hoping that will not be him. I really would love to have my boy home by Mother's day. I have taken pictures of him bottle feeding and a few with him with out his feeding tube, so I will post those soon. As for other news in the fam.

Olivia is recovering good from her stitches and has a nice scab over it. She did however decide to pull a figurine on top of it and re-cut it open as well as slice her nose, luckily no stitches were needed for that. Madalyn is still wondering when her brother is going to come home and when she can hold him and feed him. She is almost done with preschool and I know she is excited for that. I think she needs a summer break. She is excited to have a dance recital coming up so she can wear her tinkerbell costume.

My brother Adam proposed to his girlfriend on Thursday and that was an exciting shocker. None of us had a clue. We are so excited for her to officially be a Spicer.
My Sister Saralyn is graduating on May 4th with her Masters, she has worked extremely hard on this and I am so proud of her.

Scentsy Open House

I have decided to do a Scentsy Open House on Wednesday April 29th at my house. If you do not know where I live let me know and I will send you my address. You can come smell the scents, eat and chat. It will be from 6:30-9:00. If you are not able to make it, but would like to order just leave a comment or call me. I hope most of you can make it, this will really help me make my quota before my 3 months is up. Plus, to get orders by Mother's Day they have to be in by the 30th, so if you need gifts for your Mamma's they will be here just in time.
