Apria healthcare brought over what is called a therapy blanket. It's kind've like a hotpad attached to a little generator like thing. It produces a blue light and you just slide it under a onesie on his tummy or back. So I can essentially keep the light on him for most of the day. Whew! Much needed relief, although a little tricky for sleeping at night, but it's only for the weekend...I hope. Keep your fingers crossed that Curren's bilirubin count will have dropped dramatically by Monday's appt.
Now, a little bit of randomness from our first week having Curren home.
A deer dropped by our house for a little drink.
1st sponge bath.
What a great big brother...too bad Curren was too hungry to care.
What a sweet little boy. 1 week old!

Oh, that bilirubin. Poor baby getting poked so much. I think it is harder on mommy though!
Everyone looks so cute and happy. Hey send that deer down our way, Tanner loved that picture when I told him that was at Kellan's house.
Oh he's so beautiful! I hope he feels better soon. Kellen looks sooo big next to him. Of course, he looked big next to Carson too.
Jyll - We are so lucky to have you guys as neighbors. I just love your blog. You are amazing in getting anything done, let alone all you have been doing with a newborn. Anyways, that is fun. Lynnea
