One Week Away!

These two best buddies are definitely going to miss 
each other over the next 2 weeks!

Hello Family and Friends!  I can't believe we are only one week away from surgery now!  We had our last PT today with Spasticity and I am just so excited to see how our little man will change after surgery!  We head out to St. Louis on Tuesday and then will have surgery on Thursday.  We won't know what time surgery will start yet, but they will let us know on Wednesday.  I never knew it was possible to be so excited and nervous about something all at the same time, but I know we are doing the right thing for Logie in the long run!

Testing out the stroller to make sure it is approved for after surgery!

Once we get situated we will let everyone know and give you more details about where we are and room numbers etc.  We would love any notes / texts / etc while we are there to help keep little man's spirits high (and ours)!!  I have also created a Facebook group to follow along for more instant updates on surgery and therapy if you want to join or just check it out, you can get to it at Logan's Journey.

Thank you as always for all your support, love, prayers through this process it takes a village and we sure live in a a great one!!

    Prayers, positive thoughts, and good juju heading your way. This part is never fun, but you're both strong and Logan is strong and you'll have some awesome stories to tell one day! Xoxox Sam, Brian, & Super Cate

5 & 6!! - November 13-14, 2013

The title of this post says everything although you may not realize what it means...we have finally hit 2 very exciting milestones related to 5 & 6.  Let me break them down for you... I like 5 & 6! As of yesterday morning our little man is now weighing in at 5 pounds 1.7 ounces!!!  That means in just one month he has grown almost 2 pounds and is now the size of some regular term babies (albeit small ones).  Also, now that he is 5 pounds he can get in a carseat safely (which means we can take him home as soon as everything else is ready) and he is almost growing out of his preemie clothes!   Now on to 6...as of Wednesday afternoon they were able to finally move Logan down on his High Flow Nasal Cannula from level 7 to level 6.  I was a little worried how he would do on this but honestly he is doing better than when he was at level 7.  When I held him on Thursday he did the best he has ever done, he didn't drop his vitals too many times and f...

On my way home!! I am so excited to finally be able to write the post I have been waiting 2 months for...our little man has come home!!  The past week has been quite an eventful one but in the end we have our baby at home with us.  Logan made a ton of progress the last week in the hospital, moving to 8 bottles a day on Friday the 6th, moving off the cannula on Saturday the 7th and finally coming home exactly 2 months after he was born and 3 days after his original due date on Thursday, December 12th, weighing in at 7 pounds 3 ounces and 20 inches long!!  It is such a crazy and wonderful feeling to finally have him here with us and for the first time in 3 months not to be at the hospital!  There is this perfect and beautiful baby that has joined our daily lives and we couldn't be happier, I just love having my little family finally all together!!   The first night home was a little tough, I think I was just a little Mommy paranoid, checking every coupl...

A Bottle?!?! - November 19 - 21, 2013

So sleepy! The last couple of days have been pretty productive and exciting for us.  Our little man has made some great progress!  He has moved down to level 2 which means he is now on the low flow nasal cannula instead of the high flow and as of today he has tasted his first taste!   I think I like this new method of eating, it is so tasty!! Today was a big day and we had our first bottle feeding and I think that Logan did great.  The nurse had to do the first feeding and when we started out he had a couple of moments where he wasn't breathing as well as he should but after about 5 minutes he seemed to have it figured out.  He was able to take about 2/3 of his normal feeding (35 out of 51 cc's) and on a scale of 1 to 10 the nurse said he was an 8 for his first time.  From here on out we will be able to give him his bottles and I can't wait to see how he does with us.  They said that there is a chance they will add another bottle tomorrow to...
