Hi everyone!
This morning we were OVERJOYED to hear that our little warrior now weighs...
A FULL 1.36kg!!! That means he has picked up 40 grams per day the last couple of days! Can you believe it! We are so incredibly proud of our baby boy, at this rate he'll be home in no time! Thank you my precious miracle, you have made our day and we love you with all our hearts. You have touched so many people already and I know we are going to learn so many amazing lessons from you.
I spoke to sister Sheila yesterday to try and get a better idea of what we are waiting for now and she said it really is just a matter of him putting on weight and not getting sick. Caden is still dependent on the oxygen, but she says that doesn't matter because they are discharging a baby today who only went off the oxygen yesterday. Sometimes they even send them home with oxygen. So as his lungs get bigger so he'll need less and less O2. She also said they seem to pick up quicker from about 1.5kg, so only 140 grams to go!!! At about 1.9kg (depending on his stability) they'll try and let him feed on his own and if all those things are fine (weight, temperature, breathing and feeding) then he'll be home!
Thanks so much again for the overwhelming support we have received from everyone! To every person who has offered a lift, a service, a kind word, bits of information, and those who are keeping our little boy in their prayers, thank you, thank you, thank you! We couldn't have done this without you!
I added another video, so hopefully you can see how much bigger he is getting.
Lots of love
Elriza & Wes

You are growing so beautifully and are getting soooo cute, you are our real little cutie-pie. We thank God for keeping you safe and soon you will be home by your loving parents and family. We continue to pray for you and your parents and we know that the Lord will always keep watch over you and keep all three of you in His loving care.
