Infant CPR

Mom, Dad, Grandma Todd, and Grandpa and Grandma Goolden had dinner out this evening followed by an infant CPR session with Trey's nurse Julie.  All five of us had our own baby dolls to practice with.  It was very informative and we all feel prepared now for the worst.  If our readers learn anything about newborn care from our blog we hope it is the importance of hand washing and preparing for emergency situatuions - infant CPR can save lives (even for babies without respiratory problems)!

EXCITING NEWS: After nine long days Trey was finally able to come out of bed this evening.  It was a big surprise to mom because Trey still has an arterial line which is very sensative to movement.  Trey is a big boy though and it was good for him to be held.  It was good for mom too!
