Our billi baby...

So, we're not too good at posting new and exciting events, but we certainly have had our share since the last post.

Within about a day of bringing Curtis home from the hospital we found out he had jaundice (yeah, we know...typical..), but his billirubin levels were high enough that he needed to be admitted to Texas Children's Hospital overnight. Nothing freaks out first time parents of about 3 days (no matter how minor) like a trip to the hospital. He got to fake 'n bake in a little incubator under a billi light to lower the levels. Fortunately, as you can hopefully tell from his pictures (see "Counts Family Pictures" link on right side of pag) he kicked it pretty quickly, and we were back out of the hospital within about 18 hours.

He sure knows how to show those nurses and doctors. Nurses thought he'd be there for 2-3 days, and the residents said probably at least 24 hours. You showed them, didn't you, son.

P.S. Texas Children's and Ronald McDonald house (resident in the NICU at TCH) are frikkin' awesome.
