Good day Sunshine!

I think my title is a perfect one for today's blog entry, as I heard this song
today as I drove back to CHOC and listened to it on the loudest volume in
the car.

Last night I slept like a log ....my bed felt the best it had ever felt.

Bleu and I talked this morning on the phone, and I could hear fisher
say "mama" in the background. Bleu said fisher had a new IV put in
his arm last night at 1 am after the one in his leg got too old and swelled
his ankle up. He then slept until 7am....and was awake and very active,
eating baby food and fruit, his first big meal. His eyes were swelled up
again due to sleep, but were slowly reopening.

When I got to the hospital I walked in and could not believe the difference!!!
He was sitting up in bleus lap being himself! His eyes have opened up half
way and you can see the beautiful blue color that I missed so dearly during
the last 3 days.

This afternoon he became the social butterfly again and the swelling in his
head has improved dramatically. We spent the afternoon playing in the
family room, away from his cribside.

Now I look at him and can see his forehead looks so different! The new
shape of his forehead makes him look like a different baby!!!

Right now I am with him getting him unwound for bed. He is laying in
his crib just relaxing and fighting his sleep. He was awake for 12 hours
straight. It has been the best day ever!!!

In the next few days I will post all of his photos, as we photographed all
of his stages. It is really incredible!!!

Good night!! Ali
