Still growing
Lucas is getting bigger every day! We are awaiting his eye exam on Monday. For those who want to know when he is coming hone the answer is, its based on him getting to the point that he'll take all his feedings without a feeding tube. They start by offering bottle/breast up to 4 times a day. Once he can eat 80% of those himself, they offer 5 times, then six, then seven. When it gets to where he eats his bottle on demand he will be ready. It is unlikely he will go home with a feeding tube. Another sign he will come home soon will be when he is circumcised. This will happen a few days before he comes home. We cannot wait until he comes home!
