Up to the 9th floor!

Landon had a good day, he got moved up to the CPCU just like we expected and did pretty well the rest of the day, except for being upset for a while this afternoon. He got a private room which is nice cause it's a little quieter than the open space of the CICU. He's starting to act pretty hungry and while the nutrition he's getting through IV will help, he'll still feel hungry which will be hard since we can't feed him for several more days.

So when he wakes up, he seems to do so with a vengance, whether it's due to hunger or pain. Now the only thing he's on for pain is tylenol as needed which is good.  His scar from surgery is looking better each day but it's definitely a reminder that but our 12 day old has been through open heart surgery!  It's also a reminder that God brought him through surgery and continues to heal him.  He's only got one thing on his face now, a tube in his nose, which might come out soon. This is down from 4 (just on his face) so he's starting to look more like our sweet baby again. I'm sure I said that before, but it's so nice to see him get closer and closer to "normal" looking again.

No plans to change anything else that we know of, just trying to get him to sleep as much as possible so he can continue to heal!
