Isaac has been settling well into his home life. He is generally having feeds every 3-4 hours during the day and then most nights we can get a 5 hour interval in which is good. Isaac is having far more awake periods and is really starting to look and notice toys, sounds, mobiles etc and has even started to use his voicebox a little by cooing and arghing..its very cute indeed. It has taken sometime for Isaac to fully recover from his re-intubation back in early August as he could not cry very loud due to swelling around his voicebox - this has certainly changed....we now have a very loud and distinctive cry which is so nice knowing that he has recovered...
Isaac recently had a Family Visit from his Uncle Adam (Deb's brother), Aunty Jennifer and his Cousins Thomas, William and Sophie.



Grandfinal Day Win for the Magpies
Still loving his playmat time


Chillin out in the vibrating bassinette/rocker

Bath time with Dad





Sleeping but still peeping
( a habit that preemies pick up whilst in NICU)

This was the first time the kids had ever seen Isaac awake and only the 2nd time they had seen him... and they were oh so excited...
