Thursday, June 4th
Today we woke up early to make it to the doctor's office by 9:00 a.m. for Trey's first appointment. We are taking him to Knoxville Pediatrics Associates and have been impressed with the doctors we have met so far. Today he weighed 7 lbs, 4 oz and measured right under 20 inches long. He had a great check up and is healthy but he still has his jaundice. He had his billy rubin (if that is how you spell it) test done as a result of the jaundice. The nurse pricks the heel of his foot and draws blood. If the number is elevated we may have to do some phototherapy and put him in the light to help with the yellow. Later in the afternoon we received a phone call from the dr. office saying his BR levels were elevated and for us to come back tomorrow and have the test done again on Friday so that was our plan! Anything for our little man!! Other than that Trey is healthy, happy and eating very well!! We were excited to have some visitors come by and see us today. Aunt Marsha and Uncle Jimmy (Big Dave's brother and his wife) came by to see the little guy and definitely said he was a YOUELL!! We also had Uncle Kevin and Aunt Can Can stop by after they had dinner at PF Changs (David gladly ate their leftovers!!) Enjoy the pictures!! I sure do enjoy taking them!
