Aydan is now up to 5 pounds 7 ounces!! He's been having a lot of desats and bradys, but it only happens after he eats (by bottle or through the feeding tube), so they've come to the conclusion that it's most likely reflux that's causing it. They've tried propping his bed and laying him on his tummy and those both have made an improvement on his breathing episodes. If the episodes continue, they may have to put him on some medication. They said that it's completely normal with him being a preemie, because his GI tract wasn't developed.
Other than that he's doing really well! Growing and taking his bottles well!!! He's changing and looking a lot like what Ilana did when she was a baby! Michael said he got jipped in looks again because he's thinking Aydan will look like Mommy, just like Ilana, haha! I think he's got several features like Michael, though. Specifically his complexion, hair, and hairline - even the swirl on the back of his head!

These pictures are so sweet! Cole kept pointing at the screen and saying "baby!" And when I showed him the one of all three of you and told him who all of you were he tried to hug the computer. :) We miss you guys!
