Update on our son

Hi everyone, Ian Frank has been growing away, at last weighing he was nearly 7 and a half pounds! He is officially beyond his projected birth date by a couple of weeks now, too.

Here are some new pictures of Ian, you'll see from the progression that he no longer needs any breathing assistance at all (not even the nasal cannula) but is still being fed part of his milk through a feeding tube.

He is eating more and more of his food on his own by drinking thickened milk from a bottle and we are optimistic that he will come home in a couple of weeks.

Tim and Genya, so happy to hear and see that Ian is doing well!

See you very soon!
BTW, Tim, what's with the Yankees cap?

Hi Tim, It's Kristi Pikiewicz, I stumbled across your blog and wanted to drop a note. You have a beautiful baby (and wife)! Your little man looks happier and healthier in every picture. He is so lucky to have such caring and wonderful parents!

Best,
Kristi
