Going Wireless

Evan had the IV in his head removed yesterday! He has had an IV going since August 3 (21 days)! And he was on bili lights for a few days before that! So for the first time since July 30, Evan doesn't have any medical equipment! We finally have a "real" baby and are loving how easy it is to hold him now!

The stinkin' nurse that came and removed the IV didn't bring any adhesive remover-so Evan has a nice bald spot now where all the tape was holding the IV in. But if anyone can pull it off, it's Evan!

He looks fantastic and as nature will have it--his hair will come in the thickest right there. Enjoy the little guy and get over holding him 'cause there's grandparents on the way in a few weeks.

Yay Evan! He looks great, even with a little patch. And in a few months, he'll have rubbed a bunch of hair off anyways. What a handsome little guy! We're so excited to meet him in a few weeks!

That's great news! I'm so excited things are back to how they should be now! What an experience...your family is so strong, especially that little Evan. He's such a fighter!

Sorry I didn't come say Hi to you at the temple dedication! I was trying to hurry and find a seat, there were so many people there!! See you all soon!

That is so great. Truly a cause for celebration. I know you just want to hold and snuggle them so bad when they are all hooked up and now you can! Hopefully all our germs will be gone soon so we can come and see him in person.

I'm glad to hear he's free of tubes now! I know it sucks being connected to things and not being able to freely move your baby around :)
