Hi All,
Caden finally just reached the 2kg mark and is now weighing 2.02kg. He didn't pick up much weight because he used a lot of energy sucking. He's eating well and is on 3 feeds a day now. Tomorrow he's getting some of dad's blood again to help with his oxygen. It's what the doctor calls "a 20 000km service". Hopefully after the transfusion he'll be able to hold his oxygen better with all the new red blood cells to help. After that, we're on our way home!!!
We also finally finished the room and we're very happy with it. Hopefully Caden feels the same! Dad's compactum and toy box came up from Cape Town on Friday along with a whole lot of other goodies. Thanx so much granny and grampie Paul for sending it and for spending so much time fixing the compuctum up for us. We really appreciate it and can't wait for you to see it in his room!
Friday night was an absolute blast at the comedy jam. We enjoyed letting our hair down and relaxing with some very good comedy! Now we're just waiting on the edge of our seats for baby to come home.
It's much easier picking Caden up now that he's picked up some weight. It doesn't feel like we're going to break him which a a huge relief! Hopefully we can post some pictures soon!
Hope everybody has a quiet week! We're off to the hospital now.
Lots of Love

What a boytjie!
Dearest Wes, Reezie and Caden,
Our Little Warrior is doing just great and with the Lord by his side and holding his precious little hand he will do just fine with the transfusion today. We hope that Caden will enjoy his baths as much as his dad did in his conpactum. Keep that mamaroni juice pumping and soon your precious little boy will be in his lovely nursery all cuddled up in his new cot. Praise the Lord for all his hard work and for always being there for the three of you and for all of us as well.
Love you lots and God Bless
Grampie and Granny.
