Sun. Sept. 23rd.

Luke continues to do well with his food, so well that he is up to a full feed. He is officially off of the TPN (nutritional fluids), which is wonderful that he doesn't need them anymore.
I visited Luke with my parents last night, I held him the whole time and we had a nice visit. Luke opened his eyes for a bit to say hello to my parents.
Today he opened his eyes and was looking around a lot more! It was wonderful to see his eyes for so long and see him respond to my voice. Today we brought Bryan with us and he enjoyed the visit too, I could tell that there was a little jealousy when I held Luke, Bryan didn't know what to think of that. He liked patting Luke, holding his hand and blowing him kisses.
I also started working a little bit with nursing today with Luke, which we have a road ahead on that for him, but he is getting old enough to start building up strength and familiarity with that department. It was wonderful for both of us.

Luke is 2 months old and 34 weeks gestational age now, hard to believe 2 months has gone by already.
