Davis had a visit from Grandma Laura this evening. He had his eyes open for most of the day today. He's on morphine so he's pretty groggy, but it is still so nice to see his eyes. Today we looked at each other for a good long while. We both feel so much closer to him after looking into his eyes.
Davis also got a new bedmate- the love frog! Elizabeth and Katie, his sweet little cousins, brought the love frog to keep him company. Thanks girls! Davis loves him.
Davis is on the schedule to have surgery on Thursday. That could change- we're learning that everything, all the time, at any point is subject to change- but we're hopeful that he'll be ready then and that everything will go smoothly. He's doing so well and we're so proud of him- he just needs to keep it up for a few more days to show the docs that he's ready to have his repair.
Go Davis!

what a beautiful baby!!! :-) So glad to hear that he is doing well. My mother in law is convinced that Maxton will be born this week (she says tonight due to the full moon) so who knows, I may have a little one to look at soon. Many prayers for you guys!
Oh My Gosh... Carolyn... Michael!!! I started crying as soon as I saw little Davis' eyes open. What a sweetheart! Look at those beautiful eyes!!! I'm so proud of you guys! I am praying every chance I get. I love you. Mwah Mwah Mwah!

He's so gorgeous!!! I love that his eyes are open and that y'all can see them and he can see y'all.
We are praying faithfully for him and if we can do anything for him or y'all please let us know.
I hate it everytime I hear that Carter looks just like his Dad, so I'm sad to say this, but....Davis looks just like Michael. What a cutie pie. It's so special to see their eyes open and somehow makes it more "real." Best of luck for Thursday. We'll keep on praying for you guys.
+Dear Lil Davis, You are a very handsome boy and our hearts are so filled with joy for you and your Momma and Papa.Axel says after your operation he will bring over his wrecker and remove all the little needles and stuff for you.He said he will be very gentle. We all love you and send our best from Oregon. Take care little buddy. God bless. Greg,Robyn&Axel

Davis has beautiful eyes.... We haven't had a chance to see Joseph's eyes yet b/c all the medications and the ECMO have him very swollen even his eyes. Hopefully he can open them soon :)
