Sitting Pretty

Grant was back to his normal self today - yeah!  I bought Grant a new Bumbo chair yesterday, and he's definitely getting the hang of sitting.  He looks like a little old man when he's sitting in the Bumbo - tiny, but able to hold his own.

We did a weight check this morning, and Grant is now 11 lbs 4.5 oz.  Looks like the NG tube is helping him to gain the weight he needs.  He decided he needed a break from the tube today and pulled it out of his nose, so I was able to get a few pictures of the little guy without any tape nor tubes.  I'm looking forward to the day he doesn't need the NG tube - it was so nice to carry him for a few minutes without worrying about toting the drip bag and pole.

Striking a pose - - Grant the baby model.


Hair is starting to look a bit thinner....probably the chemo drugs.

  3. That kid is so cute! He doesn't seem fazed at all by the ordeal he is going through. Isn't that the beauty of innocence? Connie, you are an amazing mom and Damon, we are thinking of you every day. Love, Leon and Cheryl
