Here he is!


Andrew David was born on 2/24 at 8:39am.  He weighed 2 lbs, 9 oz and was 14"  long.  He is perfectly proportioned and looks like a tiny doll.  He is in the level two nursery at the hospital and is doing remarkably well for a 28 "weeker".  He was only on the ventilator for 12 hours and then put on CPAP.  After only 18 hours on CPAP the unit was removed and now he just has a little cannula (those air tube thingies) in his nose.  He is sucking on a tiny Binky and is just amazing.  His nickname in the nursery is "Baby Magic"!  His mama got to hold him for the first time last evening and it was a joy to see.  We are truly blessed.
