We have had a great day! We arrived at the hospital in this awful weather not knowing what to expect from the doctors. When we got to the NICU the doctors were discussing Wyatt's condition and we went on in to see him.As soon as we reached his bedside the nurse rushed over and told us that he had pooped! Jeremy and I just cried we were so happy. I don't think I've ever cried over poop before today, but today I did. We knew that meant there was no surgery needed for little Wyatt. After the wonderful news, the doctors allowed me to hold him for the first time and to try and breastfeed. They also did some bottle feeding with very good success. He did get very tired and couldn't finish the bottle, but all in all it was successful.So today was terrific in so many aspects. Jeremy and I are much more high-spirited. We were pretty stressed about his health, but now we know that we can handle all these little problems that are left. The only big problem left is the jaundice. His levels were up tonight so we are praying that they go down tomorrow.We really appreciate all your words of encouragement. They really keep us going. Here is a picture of our little one.

A lot of people were excited about his poop yesterday! Countless prayers have gone up and are certainly being answered. We hope you both are doing well and taking care of yourselves as well. We can't wait to meet Wyatt. I'm sure Noah is anxious to meet him too.!
