Happy leap day!

Just a couple of snaps to post when we were changing out Jack Henry's bed.



He has been progressing well and is now considered Level 2 status, even though the doctors and nurses are cool with letting us remain in a Level 3 pod. This provides us the benefit of getting the 2 babies to 1 nurse ratio in Level 3 rather than going to 4-to-1 in Level 2.

Consequently, Jack Henry's bed was switched out partly because the warming system was not working properly and he was ready to move into a bed that does pop the lid for instant access (useful in cases of intibation or other invasive procedures). The equipment here at Memorial Hermann is top notch. I can't imagine going any place else as we have been very spoiled.

I personally blame the medical staff for our spoiling - yes, Dr. Ursula, Nurse Ashley, Nurse Amy, Nurse Kelli, Nurse Ashley (there are a lot of y'all), Nurse Erin, amongst many others. I sleep much better at night knowing that I don't have to take responsibility for you spoiling us!
