Sunday Evening Update
From Grandma Mills: Cammy and Gerry are at Tacoma General with Reed. She got him to nurse a little. It won't take him long to figure out that there is lots more to life than a plastic pacifier. Everyone is doing really well. They are waiting for a spot in the regular nursery to move Reed there because he is ready. Cammy and Gerry have an apartment in the hospital complex. Gerry and she asked that if folks want to give a small present to the baby, they would be delighted if people want to give a donation to the Neonatal ICU at Tacoma General Hospital. You can find the donation page on the TG web site under the Multicare Foundation or you can donate at the front desk of TG from 8-4 weekdays. The NICU also needs baby caps and baby outfits right now if anyone wants to purchase some and drop them by. Thanks to all who have logged in, blogged and prayed for our little boy. love mary lou

We are so happy that everything turned out great with Reed. We knew it would, he's got great parents! Hope you all have settled in and have been able to get some rest (wink wink, nudge nudge). Enjoy your little guy, they grow up fast! Again we can't wait to meet him at Thanksgiving.
Monday evening, from Grandma Mills:
Cammy and Reed are getting along well with breatfeeding - - 18 cc at noon, 26 cc mid afternoon. The nursing staff is weaning Reed off the IV now that Mamma is here. No more nose tubes for oxygen or plain air.
A little jaundice so he gets to bask in his own special light for a while wearing his personal eyeshades. Grandma Austin and G/G Mills took Cammy and Gerry out to lunch - - a break from hospitals and a chance to keep their energy up to deal with the sleep deprivation that will become the routine for them.
Congratulations Cammy & Gerry, on your little bundle of joy!! We're all so happy for you & looking forward to seeing more pictures when you get back to work! Try and get 'some' sleep :-)
Lots of love from your Friends in Low places @ Bldg. 98!!
