Mathew Thomas Romans

They have finally named baby Mathew. Today Julie was able to feed him twice and he continues to go without receiving extra oxygen. Last night they did, however, have to hook up to the feeding tube after he threw up. They are not super concerned about it though. Also, he will be in the hospital at least until Wednesday because he will continue to receive his antibiotic to treat his white blood count. They said that one of the nurses commented that he was the healthiest Down Syndrome newborn that she had seen. Mollie is planning on spending the night with her parents over at the Ronald McDonald home. They were lucky to get a room and have meals taken care of for them. I am planning on going again tomorrow so I will update with more pictures!

Also, I have been corrected. He weighted 7 lbs. 10 ounces when he was born not 7 ounces! Sorry for the misinformation!
