hoping to come home tomorrow!

so we did not make it home today, but it is looking hopeful for tomorrow. lane is doing good. the test they did on his lungs today looked good. they decided he did not need oxygen. apparently because he is so small his airway gets blocked by his tongue and occasionally "collapses" but it is instantaneous as his oxygen levels never drop and he has no problems taking breaths. he still is at five four so weight gain is going slow. his temp is not staying up very well so we are bundling him up really good. he is on a high calorie formula mixture so hopefully he will chunk up soon. Even though we are going to be coming home it sounds like we are gonna be at the doctors office several times a week at first. this is fine with me. we need to figure out some way to transport him so i dont have to carry him around the stores and stuff. he cannot lay on his back which makes a normal car seat impossible. i guess i will just have to have help if i go anywhere. :) he should be in a normal car seat in two more weeks. his back is looking really good and the shunt is working well. his neurosurgeons are very pleased with the way he is doing. we are still waiting on the final genetic tests so please keep praying that comes back ok. well im headed to bed for my last night of sleep....here are some new pics...hope so see you all very soon! well pictures are not loading i will try again in the morning
