Sheesh, I didn't know that missing a couple days of posting would cause such a ruckus! I am thankful that every cares so much! But to be honest, I was resting a lot...the resting worked too because I am now approximately 1lb 11oz! I say approximately because the ventilator adds to the weight. But the resting has also kept away any infections and the settings on the ventilator have been reduced all weekend long! It will be off in a couple more days and then we can get my true weight! 
Tonight was fun. I played a quick game of peek-a-boo with Daddy. He would look at me and then I would close my eyes. When I opened them again he was gone...but then I saw him again and I closed my eyes! I think I like this game!
Not much happend to me over the weekend medical wise. On Friday, I had my 4th blood transfusion and the Drs decided to give me more calories to help boost my weight. I am now eating 8ccs (~8mL) of milk which is a whopping 22 calories!
I tried making it a little more fun over the weekend, my goal was to get the nurses to pay more attention to me. On Friday night, the IV line that was in my leg was bothering me, so I decided to kick it out! That wasn't such a good idea I soon found out, because the IV was then put back into my arm! But it did make the nurses laugh!
On Saturday, during one of my feeds, I pulled the milk down on top of me! I wasn' ready for the nurse to leave so, I had to do something...Let me tell you though, milk is much better in my belly than on my face!
There's not much else to report on. Thank you again for thinking of me and I promise I won't go so long without an update. I didn't mean to worry you all so much!

Thanks for the update...I don't want to bother your mommy and daddy with phone calls. I am so happy to see that you are gaining weight. keep up the good work and tell your mommy and daddy I said hello and that I won't bother them. I'd like to come see you but Pop-Pop has been working late and I wouldn't want to take your parents time away with you so that I visit, I can wait!
Love,

Morning Jamison,
WHEW! You had me worried. I'm so glad to hear you got some good rest and are feeling much better. Congrats on the weight gain kiddo...but you really do need to get that milk in your belly and not wear it! Not a great fashion statement! Here's a tip, start making cute faces to keep the nurses interested! Keep up the good work sweetie!
Love Aunt Deb
