Happenin' Sunday!
So much happened today ..... Ian's weight topped 2lbs 7oz and Ian also moved into the 'Penthouse' suite at the NICU! The suite is regarded by the nurses as the best suite at the hospital as it has two mountain-view windows and total privacy - this is where Ian will spend his remaining time at the NICU. Steve Roo'd with Ian today for nearly 90 minutes as well today and how peaceful Ian was. There was also talk today about possibly removing the IV from Ian's right arm, which in itself will be a milestone step forward for him. This might happen sooner than we thought, so we are keeping our fingers crossed for him. To summarize our day, Ian is doing great. Really great.

WOW, the little fella's steppin' up to the penthouse! I guess he has good taste like his Mum and Dad. It's wonderful to hear of the positive progress and there was even time for a little skiing too. Well done everyone! Keep it up.
