Happy Friday Everyone!

Logan is a Happy guy this morning.  He had a great night with eating, sleeping and a little crying...but they said he did great!

Right now he just ate about 2oz of forumula and is kicking back watching a Baby Einstein DVD.  The are telling us that they may move him to a different room today.  Tommorrow they are planning on removing his Arterial line and a couple of his chest tubes.

Logan definately has some of the nurses wrapped around his finger.  I think 3 of them want him to be thier boyfriend. 

Thanks for everyone's continued support.  It seems like we have been here forever.  It's kind of a blurrr and I can't believe it's already Friday.  My office is doing fantastic without me.  Hope you keep checking back and keep saying prayers for him.  We aren't home yet, but he is definately making progress.  More later.

When can I go home?

Logan has decided that he is now checking his own monitors to decide when he gets to go home.

He has had a very uneventful day today which is what we want.  Logan did get a crash course on all the machines that are monitoring him and he decided to send the nurses home for the evening so they could get some rest.

Actually, he is doing very well.  They may take some more lines out of him tomorrow.  Meanwhile he is just hanging out getting rest and getting better.

BINGO!

Looks like the Logasaurus is a lucky little guy.  Logan got to play hospital Bingo from his bed today and actually won Bingo!  He had his Mom go to the play room and choose his prize for him.

Not a whole lot to report today.  Logan has been awake most of the day with a few naps here and there.  He's been eating formula every 2 hours and been pretty fussy at times.  As long as they manage his pain and keep him fed, then he tends to want to just watch some Baby Einstein DVDs on the TV in his room.

He wants to hold his Grandma's hand alot which helps keep him from scratching himself.  I guess his face itches some from where there was some medical tape.

Good Morning! Logan was hungry.

Good Morning Everyone!  Logan had a good night...although a bit fussy.  He was starving this morning and definately wanted something to eat.

Glad they let us give him a bottle this morning or else who knows what havoc would have been created.  I will tell you it's definately a bit awkward trying to burp him right now.  Lots of tubes and wires and we have to prop him up very carefully.

Logan just had another chest X-Ray and we will have the results back soon.  We are aniticipating that Logan is going to have a great "Attitude Thursday!"  Will keep posts coming today as we get more info.  Thanks again for all of your support.

Stop the Presses!!!! Logasaurus spotted in San Francisco!

If you happend to miss today's Chronicle...here is a picture of the front page.  Even the paper knows that there is a Logasaurus in town!

We saw this paper in the stand on the way back to RMH from dinner tonight.  Had some pretty decent mexican food at Tortilla Heights tonight.

Jen is really having a difficult time being away from Madison and not being able to hold either of our babies for 48 hours now.  It's definately difficult on both of us...but we both keep each other going by knowing that hopefully this will be behind us soon and we will all be home together.  We just called and checked on Logan at UCSF.  He woke up and was rather cranky...they gave him some more Morphine and he seems to be doing much better now.  They won't be doing anything but making him comfortable and letting him get lots of sleep tonight.

Madison...my little angel is doing a great job of keeping her Grandparents on their toes.  We miss her so much but are also glad that she doesn't have to be exposed to some of this.  I think that's it for the night...we are going to get some more rest and head back to UCSF first thing in the morning.  Everyone at UCSF has been OUTSTANDING!  Anyone reading this that may be heading to UCSF for something similar....trust us....you are in great hands here! 

Logan said to tell everyone to get lots of rest tonight and check back tomorrow!  He sent out a little dinosaur Roarrrrr!

Peek-a-Boo! The Logasaurus takes his first look around!

True to his name...Logan woke up...peeked at us and let out a wonderful little dinosaur groan.

I think he was a little frustrated about being restrained and had a little pain.  A quick dose of Morphine and he's doing much better.  Good call by the nurses or else they would have had a "Godzilla" situation on thier hands.  Logazilla?

They are actually taking him off the oxygen mask and moving him to a nasal cannula for oxygen.  They have been working towards this all day...so this is great.  He's pretty doped up on the Morphine now...but definately awake.  He was holding onto Jen's finger a few minutes ago.  It's great to see his little eyes.

Heidi...I know you have been waiting for this post!  Thanks again to everyone for the great notes.  It's wonderful to have the support from all of you that we have!

On a side note...every time one of these alarms goes off in Logan's ICU room becuase somthing just isn't quite right with him...it reminds me of that ding on the Southwest Airlines commercial.  "Wanna get away?"  Speaking of...Jen asked one of the nurses here when her baby was due.  Turns out that the woman isn't pregnant.  Uhm...that was an awkward moment to be standing in the middle of!  She's gonna kill me for writing about this.

Logan is breathing on his own!

The ventilator machine next to Logan's bed says "Standby - Not Ventilating!" which means Logan is not connected to the ventilator.  He is breathing 100% on his own.

He is still groggy and they really want him to sleep off some of the drugs right now.

His right lung is fully inflated and working properly again.
