NICU day 1

Jackson was moved from C(ardiac)ICU to N(eonatal)ICU today. Our new address for receiving mail will be as follows:

Jackson Vann
NICU 529
1 Children's Place
St. Louis, MO 63110

Our little pal got his breathing tube out this morning as well, and is breathing on his own with oxygen support through a nasal cannula. He's been tanning under the bed warmer lights and is pretty mellow today except for some nasty, thick mouth secretions at times. I was able to hold him again today--he is such a little bit! Three dear visitors this morning and two more to come this evening. So thankful for all the love and support...more thankful than we could ever express. We are very weak.
