Michael is now 7 lbs, 4 ozs. The cardiologist stopped by today (while we were not there) and looked at Michael's EKG from yesterday. He said that Michael would outgrow his skipped heart beat. Since we weren't there we didn't get the name of the condition, but yesterday the nurse practitioner said something like PCA. At the time everyone was also saying that this was a fairly common condition that preemies grow out of, so nothing to be concerned over and it won't keep him in the NICU.

He hasn't had any more episodes of note, so it looks like he might be coming home soon. otherwise, not much to report. At least that I can remember.
