Another good day. They aren't talking about Finn going to the ICC yet, but he is advancing in that direction. We aren't going to tell him since he wanted to stay in the NICU so badly last time he was supposed to go to the ICC!
Finn is up to 21 ml every 3 hours. I think that will be increased tomorrow and HOPEFULLY his IV will be taken out. He has had 6 IVs in one week. That is a lot. The mom in me is so ready for him to not need the IV any longer (he is getting supplemental vitamins through them right now until he is back to full feedings).
We didn't really get a detailed update about Finn's eye exam. Basically the ROP hasn't improved or worsened and he will have another exam next week. So, more to follow on that later.
Three things I'm grateful for: our amazingly supportive friends and family, financially being able to not work in order be with my son, and Finn being as "big" as he was when he was born (the baby next to him weighs 13 oz and can probably use some prayers!).

Greetings from sunny California; Jean and I are thinking of you and happy to see the progress. We love you. Go Finnegan!!!!
Thanks for all the great updates. It's time to give what we (Finn and his family) have received. That is prayers for the little baby next to Finn. Knowing how small Finn was I cannot, in anyway, imagine a 13 ounce baby.
