*Proud Big Sister Cassidee*

Cassidee LOVES getting to go see her "brudder." She is so good about being quiet and still in the NICU and I'm so thankful that she gets to go in and see him. She's going to be a big help when he gets home!

Every little boy needs the essential hospital gear:
Longhorn hat and football!
All decked out!
Daddy and son in their matching UT hats!
Jeremy bottle feeding Cason for the first time


This is the sign on his bed in the NICU
Little boy with his eyes open.
He was awake most of the time we were in there for his latest feeding!
(Notice his face is tube free!!! Yea for no more oxygen or feeding tube....hopefully we will stay that way!)

That's one happy momma with one sweet little boy!
All of the nurses have commented on his loooong toes!
Love that little hand!!!
I thought that this was a cute smirk on his face. He is chilling under the bili lights with his shades on. Jeremy says we have our own little glow worm!
A quick update:
After talking to nurses and the doctor and seeing him first hand, everyone says he is doing great! He is not on any oxygen, he hasn't needed his feeding tube for any feedings today, and he is only slightly jaundice, so they are trying to nip that in the bud really quick. Basically, as long as he keeps getting the hang of eating from a bottle then we can take him home soon. The doctor said she would predict that we could take him home, possibly, late Sunday. We are super anxious, obviously, but want to make sure he is absolutely ready to come home. He is doing great and know that we can attribute that to your prayers.
