Jackson is doing well...his counts are still very low, but he is feeling much better.  He is enjoying playing, rolling, sitting, laughing, and just being his happy self.  We have been working on getting him to eat solid foods as well as formula.  The last couple of days he has been doing pretty well opening his mouth and eating.  He is still really messy, but he gets some of it into his belly. :-)  This week his new food is bananas and he seems to really like them.  In a couple of days we will try green beans.  I can't get him to eat the rice cereal.  He hates it, even when it is mixed in with baby food.  I can't believe I already have to go back to work next week.  I am going to miss spending so much time with Jackson.  Please pray for Erik and I as we start driving separately to the hospital every day after work.  It gets very old very quick.  Thanks for you prayers!
