Update on our "little man" Kyler!!!

Just a few pics of the HANDSOMEST baby in the world....Kyler Lee Todd!!!!
( Dont let the IV scare you, that vein in his head
is the strongest that babies have.)
Can you stand the cuteness????

Just thought I would give a quick update. The past few days have pretty overwhelming and emotionally draining!!! I got discharged from the hospital Wednesday morning, so after the 12 feeding Lee and I headed home for a few hours to try to regroup and get some things done. Needless to say, we only stayed there long enough to do what had to be done because we wanted to head back to the hospital. Kyler has taken a few bottles, but has had some trouble learning to coordinate sucking, swallowing and breathing at the same time. Therefore, they decided to continue his feedings through his feeding tube which enables him to get al the energy he can. Learning to take the bottle will come with time and should be soon because of how far along he was when we had him. Last night he was put back on a little oxygen because his levels would drop as he was trying to eat. This should help him progress quickly!!! He is in a wonderful place and in the best of care, but it is soooooo hard because all we want to do is pick him up and love on him. Please pray that Kyler will continue to grow stronger and remain healthy so we can take him home soon. Thanks to everyone for the phone calls, love and support these past few days!! We appreciate everything and cannot wait for everyone to meet our handsome Kyler.
