new digs....

Little Logan has had a tough couple of days. Breathing on his own and having that "PDA" wore his tiny body right out. The PDA caused problems in the lungs and of course, his heart. Yesterday the doctor decided to give him a break and let the ventilator help him breath for a time while his body tries to process the medicines that he's being given to help him heal, develop and ultimately grow.

this looks alot like his old apartment but it's actually

a fantastic upgrade! the ventilator that logan uses right now

is the perfect helper; it senses when he's taking a breath.

if he can't finish, it finishes for him.

if he forgets to take a breath, it reminds him.

it wants him to do the work but is compassionate enough

to help out when he can't try any more.

Even though it would be best for Logan to NOT have the ventilator there is one perk to this upgrade. His C-PAP machine required that he wear that awful knit tube on his head with those nasty orange elastics to hold the equipment in place. It was kind of tight and his head is sort of soft. The result was a total CONE HEAD. Every night when the cap was removed we joked about how pointy his head was. We knew it was only temporary but it was still disconcerting to have to see him looking so odd.

After only a few hours, his head is perfectly round and his little face is BEAUTIFUL! He's as perfect as those over-priced porcelain dolls that you can get in the mail; only better.

the ventilator is a bit un-nerving as the tube runs down his

throat but we can look for the cuteness in this too.

Little Logan wraps his teeny tongue around the tube

and sucks on it all day- like a pacifier! adorable in a

heart wrenching sort of way....
