Smiles

Today was a much better day for the little man (and for me). Besides a 10 that he got this morning for spitting up after eating and for having a loose stool, his scores have been under 8 all day and most of them are 6 and under. :)

They are stopping one of the medicines tomorrow because he is not in danger of having seizures anymore. Once he has 48 hours of lower scores, they will start weaning him off of his other meds.

He is continuing to eat better and has gained another ounce. He's now 6 lbs. 11 oz.

This afternoon, he was so sleepy when we were there but was trying really hard to stay awake. We caught some half smiles and some dreamy smiles. 

When he is sleepy but wants to know what is going on around him, he always opens the right eye.  Always.  

I told Dave that he looks like a little monkey in the second picture.

I love that sleepy look. He was trying so hard to stay awake. I know how he feels, that happens to me at work!
