Today is a day of celebration... After seven weeks in Intensive Care, Elis' good behaviour over the last couple of days and has been rewarded by being moved out of Intensive Care and into High Care. He hasn't suddenly got better or anything, but they don't consider him to need one-to-one care at the moment, so in High Care each nurse looks after three babies.
As a double celebration today, he was weighed last night and clocked in at 1.360kg, which means that he has hit the magical 3lb marker already. I think most of the weight is still going on his cheeks, but it also means that his feeds have now been increased to 28ml every three hours. I bought a bottle of Champagne and a chocolate cake on the way home, so am now off to indulge...

Chocolate and champagne - if you want to continue to look as good as you do in recent pics then remember it's a square and a sip only!
As for Elis, I can see Brian and Josie in him in the latest pic - amazing!
Keep smiling Mum and Dad - we are... Love from us both
