Not so great news...

Ethan had his home nurse checkup today. He weighs 6 pounds, 8 ounces, which is normal for babies to lose a little of their birth weight. Breastfeeding and diapers are going well. The nurse did a bilirubin draw, and we will wait for the results to come back. Ethan's face is a little yellow and we have been sitting him in the pack and play in front of the window so he can get some sunlight. After the nurse left, Aunt Sheila came to visit with us and brought Ethan super cute monkey pajamas! He is looking forward to wearing them :)

We were having a great afternoon, hanging out in the family room in front of the fireplace and Mommy and Daddy were playing some Scene It. We got a call from the pediatrician's office that Ethan's bilirubin level was 20.1, and they needed us to go back to Good Sam so Ethan could get some more aggressive light therapy.
