mornin’ everyone! our little magoo had such a great day yesterday. paul and i are so proud of how he is tolerating his tube and our hearts continue to soar because he is up to 8 ounces of formula per feeding. we really have unleashed the beast in teaching jackson what a full belly feels like. yesterday, while hooked up to his machine for an afternoon feeding, jackson also ate an entire jar of pears! last night, i felt like he was starting to grasp the concept of his sipper cup and got a few good swallows of formula from it. jackson also had two 2 hr naps, which has never happened before. paul and i are so encouraged. it’s amazing what a full belly can do! should these 8 oz tube feedings continue to go so well, we will be able to adjust his schedule slightly so that we can get rid of the 11 pm feeding. this would be so wonderful because paul and i are unbelievably over-tired. though our exhaustion levels are at an all-time high, jackson continues to show us what a big boy he is with his feedings, and we are hopeful. tonight we will celebrate jackson’s rachel’s birthday! we are really looking forward to hanging out with her and jackson’s billy and our other good friends.
