Today was a pretty good day. Overnight, the Doctor was able to draw a large amount of fluid off Kelsons chest tube, so it will be staying in for a few more days. They have continued to wean Kelson off pain medications, and now receives all of his pain meds orally. He went over 12 hours without needing it, so he was very alert for the majority of the day.
Things were pretty quiet in the NICU, so Krista and I spent the majority of the day right next to Kelson. We help do whatever we can, and I'm pretty sure by the time Kelson is ready to go home, we could almost run the place!
It was nice of Kelson not to give his mom any scares on Mothers Day.
We have a few busy days ahead getting things wrapped up with the old house, and then we hope to be able to start getting into a routine...although we don't quite remember what that is like...

Glad to hear that Mothers Day was good! Also glad to hear that Kelson is back on the right track! We felt like we could run things around there too by the time we left! :) We also had sooooo much support from family, friends, coworkers, and our hometown. I dont think people realize just how much it means to have that support! What a blessing!!! Have a great day guys!
