He's getting bigger!

My baby brother Dex is doing well. He's up over 4lbs. and graduated from the isolet to the water bed and now a cot. Turns out he's a real champ at staying warm. I haven't met him yet but hear that he's got quite the voice. Mom went in to visit him and he had three soothers in his bed. Not a good sign. The nurse let Mom know that he was disrupting the other babies. He has started to bottle and breastfeed a little bit. He's still working out coordinating sucking, swallowing and breathing but is doing pretty good given that he's just 33 weeks gestation.
He had the dreaded eye test and thankfully the results were great. No follow up required. Unfortunately the head ultrasound will require a follow up because he had some fluid on his brain. The hope is that the fluid will be absorbed back in by the time they repeat the ultrasound on June 2nd. Mom spends here days cuddling with Dex while I'm at daycare and after they tuck me in at night Mom and Dad head back to the hospital together. I'm excited to meet him. Hopefully it won't be too long from now.
