Gavin in the NICU

Gavin has been fiesty since birth.  During his first four days, he managed to rip out two IV's. The nurses have been amazed by his strength and have dubbed him fondly, "The Little Wild Man".  After going through two IV's, the doctor then decided it was time to insert a PICC line into his arm, something he could not rip out on his own.  He was on a CPAP machine for the first 8 days of his life, which would help him breathe in the times that he would forget to on his own.  He has now been off the CPAP and breathing completely on his own for the last 48 hours.  He also had to be under a phototherapy light for about 4 days to help with jaundice.  Gavin hated the light. All of his skin needed to be exposed and Gavin would prefer to be swaddled in a blanket, so it's nice to be done with the light.
Thankfully all the tests that have been run on Gavin thus far show that he is a healthy little boy.  His only issue is that he needs to put on some weight.  Please continue to pray that all of his future tests come back with positive outcomes.
