Still Going strong

So everything is still fine with Lukas. Still just waiting on the antibiotics to finish. Still hoping for wed, but we will see.

my sister came in last night and Jeff brought her over to see Lukas. She was able to hold him. since she is over 14 she can visit as much as she wants and stay as long as she wants. Kellsie says that's not fair, but that is the way it is.

since it is Sunday, the kids were able to visit this morning. Logan was first. he didn't want to hold him because of the IV in his head. He was worried that it would come out while he was holding him. But we convinced him we would be right by his side watch and helping. After about 2 min, Logan relaxed and hugged and kissed him the whole 15 min. He did a wonderful job.

Now Jakob on the other hand...he came into the room saying" Hi Connor, i missed you". I told him he couldn't hold Lukas until he said his name right. Jakob really wanted to name him Connor (which we couldn't because my brothers named his son that) or Mohawk. I know Jakob knows his name, but I don't like the little game he thinks he is playing. Jakob had no problem with the IV. Just dove right into holding him and kissing him. He even sang him a song. We couldn't hear it, because he sang it in Lukas' ear.

then Kellsie got to change him. of course Jeff was trying to help her with all the wires (for the monitoring) and Lukas went pee everywhere (of course not on Jeff, because he NEVER gets peed on). we had to change all of his bedding. then I had to get involved cleaning the whole mess up. But then Kellsie got to give him the bottle and rock him back to sleep. She is such a good sister. We already knew that, but still nice to see.

Susan came into hold him for a while.

Jeff is going into work until 6pm. the kids have already planned out the day with aunt Susan. Wii, Twilight (maybe twice if Kellsie gets her way) and pop sickles. then Jeff will come home, make dinner and come up to the hospital for a visit. We are going to try and sneak the kids in again. The night shift will be one, so we are hoping they will not notice the kids have already been here today. I know telling lies on Sunday, the Lords Day is not the best way to keep the Sabbath day holy, but I am hoping for forgiveness. I would have had the kids go to church with Susan, but it is stake conference and it is over 1/2 hour again. Too much stress for the first day with susan.

pics are at the start of all the drama. We didn't post any of the hospital nicu pics. They are a little sad.
