So we got to hold him for the first time today around 2pm.....yeah! I was so excited, I also got to try to feed him. It finally felt a bit more real. Our little Coleman has been taken off of the ventilator, and his lungs are looking fine. Now they only have him on the IV and feeding tubes and now we are just working on the feeding. We love him, he is sooo cute, we cannot decide if he looks like Lincoln or not, I think he does, but Justin thinks he just looks like his own and Kristine thinks he looks like Jack. I still haven't seen him with his eyes open, but hopefully soon. Thank you for all who have called and prayed for our little man.

the tube in the nose being held down by tape looks like the most uncomfortable thing in the world...poor guy! Its so weird that you have a kid i haven't met yet...SO WEIRD. Come back to vegas already.
Congrats! Last year when we did the early morning sales my friend Emily went into labor! Ha ha, that's a great story. Coleman is so cute, good luck with everything this week!
What a little man! You're in our thoughts . . . :)
Congrats! Glad the little guy is doing good & that you were able to hold him. Keep us posted.
How exciting that you got to hold him! Can you imagine if he had held on for 4 more weeks, you might have had a 8lb baby like me? I hope everything goes well and you get to go home soon!
He is adorable--ng tube and all! Hope you are taking him home soon!
He is so dang cute! What a trooper. Glad you are doing well can't wait to see you guys!!
He is my new favorite nephew. Don't tell anyone though.

He does NOT look like a preemie to me. What a sweet baby. I can't wait to hold him. I think he probably will look more like Lincoln than Jack, but I can also see how he could have his own look. I'm so happy that the both of you are doing well! We really love you guys:) Congratulations!
Oh yeah, my first thought was that he reminded me of your dad. What do you think?
Wow and congratulations! He is cute. We have did the ICU thing last year with Eliza, no fun. That is great that you have been able to hold him. I love the name too. When do you go back home? Did your mom come over to help out or is she waiting until you go home. At least you will have a great story to tell him and you dont have to be in a rush at Christmas!!!
Meg,
I would love to come and see you. You are so close and I would love to bring you guys something, anything. I don't know if you are staying at the hospital, but I'd come there or your relatives, any time. My number is three seven six four four five two.
Megan, Congratulations!
I am so glad you and your little guy are doing good, and that you're both healthy and well, considering. Let me know if you need anything when you get back to Vegas. Good Luck and Happy Holidays! (Christmas came early for you :D )
Hi guys! Glad you got to leave the hospital! Hope all is going just fine for you all! Coleman is a way better name than those others you were considering. I know a few little kids named Cole...is that the acceptable nickname for him? Or Lil C? or how about Manny? haha. Love you! Rebecca
Yeah! I am so glad you got to hold him. I know that wait is misserable. He looks great and so adorable. Congratulations!
I love his name :) and those pictures are too sweet! I am hoping you get to come home soon! Let me know if you need anything when you get home!
megan, he is beautiful. congrats. i am sorry he needed a little extra help, but so glad he is doing better. we will keep praying for you all!
WHAT???!! I have been out of town for like 16 days with only 3 days home in the middle of that caos! So i have not been following blogs at all!! Oh I am so excited for you! Now you will have a one month old at Christmas!!! Yay! So sorry to hear that he has to be on the ventilater! That is scary, and hard not to be able to hold him much. I truly hope all goes well and you have him home in a week! I'll call you later this week (give ya some rest time) then I want to come out and meet the little guy! So tiny and has his own little look!! :) Love the name too!! Good pick!
How exciting. Congratulations and I am glad everything is going well. If you need anything while in town let me know!
Congratulations! Wow, he is being a little stud dealing with everything and so are you and the rest of the boys.
It would be great to see you when you get back in town.
No Way! That is quite the story! Congratulations! I'm glad he is doing so well!
Congratulations, what a handsome little guy!!! Coleman is a great strong name!!!!
Take care, We love you!!!!
hope you and the lil man are doing alright. are you back in vegas? let us know if you need help with anything!
