6. He be drankin’ (not watermelon- but breast milk)

June 9 2014

Hopefully my reference to Beyonce in the title was obvious.
He drank 7 oz of milk and 2 more oz of Pedialyte.
He drank slowly and is a little out of it. He’s already being his goofy self a bit and was really excited to read “Quick as a Cricket” (like.. 7 times) and then figured out that its fun to self administer his oxygen. Once that got old he gave it a quick bite and moved on to another toy.
We learned out lesson in April when we had an expected trip to the ICU- pack some toys and distractions. They come in so handy.

He just got a dose of tylenol. For now we’re hold off on the oxy and/or morphine unless he really needs it.

Once he got his meds he fussed off to sleep and now Nick and I might try and take a little snooze here.
You probably won’t hear from us outside of this blog due to being asleep- probably for days and weeks. Is there an alternative word to exhaustion that really underscores how tired you are?

Here are some photos. xoxo
