I have not updated on my grand-nephew in a while.
He is doing very well. He now weighs 2lbs. 15oz (almost 3 lbs!). He's eating 6 cc's of milk and even his little fingers are starting to look fat (says my sister). He is just over 2 months old (born March 4th).
As you can see in this picture - my nephew has had the chance to finally hold his baby (skin to skin) - what a blessing.
This baby has had so many prayers and is doing so well - God has been very loving and merciful - we are so very thankful!
Isn't he the sweetest thing ever?!
I can't wait until they let me in to see him! I can't wait for this baby to be out of the hospital and is finally a part of our family - where we can hold him and hug him and kiss him and love him!!
I think we might just have to have a party for this baby on the day he gets to come home.
Yes ... A PARTY!!

Look at how wonderful he is doing!! I am so happy for your family! The Lord is good.
I think he deserves a party. Yes. He is adorable. I will keep him in my prayers. How old is he? What a special member of the family.
So sweet. And so little, isnt it amazing when they are that little, and they are looking around, such a little mircle. So any health issues besides normal littleness stuff?
Let me know any info on your artist that does cupcake art. LoVe cupcakes!
Happy mothers day to you also. Have a great weekend.

Yes - a party is a must. I've been waiting to get an update. This little man is so lucky - with all the love and blessings of his family and 100s, maybe 1000s of strangers (your blog readers :)) - he is definitely blessed and will do well :)
Awww, Man! Your baby is sweeter than my baby!
'Course, my baby's a dog, and your baby's a.....

He looks incredible.
He's so tiny! What a cutie. A party is definitely in order.

Definitely a party.
Awwww...he's precious, Kellan! So glad to hear he's progressing well, thank the Lord! A celebration is definitely in order.
My boys and I have been praying for that little guy on our way to school each morning, the little sweetie.

Oh Kellan! He is teeny-tiny perfection, personified! What a very strong, very determined little boy. I think he is destined for good things, and a homecoming party will DEFINITELY be in order. The power of prayer cannot be denied. Even though the saying is a bit overused, it is still the true--God is good all the time!
Have a wonderful day, Kellan Renee!
Thank you for the update! He is so precious. He will continue to be in my prayers!
What a little Angel, thanks for the update! He is so precious.
I am so glad to hear he is doing well Kellan - he is so sweet. Praying that he continues to prosper.
Definitely a party.
You know what? Its so strange but I was just wondering about this baby today and whether you had any updates.....
Thanks for the update!
How wonderful! I've been wondering how your sweet grand nephew was doing. Thanks so much for the update. It's exciting to see the results of all those prayers.
God is good! He's so little! Looks like you've got a fighter on your hands! Party it up when he comes home!!
He's adorable! Look at those big eyes! Can't wait to see more pics when he is at home where he belongs!
Two months old and most adorable and still so small!
Grow little one, grow!!
Go baby Go!
H'es doing marvelously and I do hope he continues :-)
Oh yes a party!! Needs some Rocky music for the theme. I've been praying for that little guy and I just knew he's going to make it - what a fighter!! I've heard wonderful things about skin to skin - he will keep getting better. Too cute!
I'm still praying for him and the family too!
oh thank you for the update! That is wonderful news!
Oh my goodness, he's so adorable! And, what a blessing to be able to hold him!
Continued prayers!
He's a cutie pie for sure. I feel a party coming on!
Hugs and Happy Mother's Day!

I've been wondering how he was doing... I am so glad to hear he's doing so well!!!
He is so adorable!
So Cute! Absotively, you MUST have a party for him...just don't make him eat any cake!
Over at Confessions of a CF Husband, Gwyneth is over four pounds now! (I have them on my reading list).
Thanks for stopping by the other day.
Loved the Ninja post too... I too use the "let's ask Daddy" tactic...He knows what his jobs are, and He's good at them! I think it is nice too, because we are all together all day long, and this way, they think of their Dad during the day too.
Hey, mind if I add you to my list?
Blessings & Happy Mother's Day, EJT
My son and I say a little prayer every day for that sweet baby! Glad to see he's doing well!
awwwwwww, I'm so thrilled he's doing well, and what a precious little face he has! What an amazing moment that must have been for the parents, getting to finally hold him! yay!!!!
THanks for the update Kellan, and I think a party is DEFINATELY in order for his homecoming, whenever that may be!
He's beautiful! His party will be such a wonderful celebration!! You may have to have the party without him present - at least from a couple situations which I am aware of with babies born really early, they are kept away from 'public' for a long time even after they come home. But a tip for if they do have the party with the baby present: have instant hand sanitizer present here and there throughout the house, and encourage everyone to use it. Especially before they hold the baby! This has been a long, exhausting road for your nephew and his wife, but such a blessing!
I am so happy that the little one is good and all of the prayers are helping.
That is the sweetest little guy. He must be quite a fighter and I'll keep him in my parayers.
He's so incredibly cute!! I'm so glad to hear that he's doing well. Oh Kellan, this is wonderful news.
Oh YAY, what wonderful news! Made my evening to see that sweetie getting held! Holding your preemies is daunting and yet oh so wonderful! Glad that he is doing well and praying he continues to do so!
Happy Mother's Day to his mommy and of course to YOU as well!!! :-)
Dear Kellan, I am thrilled to hear that your little baby is doing so well! I will keep him in my prayers. And I think a party is a great idea!!
♡ What wonderful news! I'm so glad that he's doing so much better!
Thanks for the update Kellan.. He is sooo tiny..
A party sounds like a great idea..
cheers kim xx
He and his family totally deserve a home coming party. Just a very quiet one - don't want to scare him. He is adorable. What a little warrior.
A party indeed! What a sweet little guy! And oh so tiny. My first was 4 lbs. 12 oz and I thought he was small, but compared to this little one, he was twice his size. I hope he continues to do well.
What a precious little miracle. I am so glad things are going well and he is growing and healthy. He is adorable!
♥HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY♥
Kellen Renee!!
Kellan,
I'm glad that your great-nephew is doing so well. Still keeping him in prayers. I hope that you have a wonderful Mother's Day.
Steph
Oh, he is just precious. Look at that picture of him gazing at the world in wonder.
I'd say a party is definitely in order.
And a very happy first mother's day to the mother of your little grand-nephew :)
Heidi
I'm so happy to hear he is continuing to do well. And, Yes, you should have a party for him when he comes home!!
What a true miracle! I am so happy for you and your family. What a sweet, sweet lil' baby!!
Oh....I'm so glad to hear he's doing so well. Yes, I think a party is definitely in order.. :)
Oh I am so, so happy to hear this good news. He has remained in my prayers. What a beautiful, strong, loved little guy. Thank you for keeping us updated. What a lovely Mother's Day this must be for your family.
I was just thinking about this sweet angel baby yesterday. So glad to hear he's doing well.
Yes, a party is a perfect idea!
Look at those big, beautful eyes :)
What a handsome, precious face!
Thank you for the update. Something last night, while I was lost in 'my' blogs, made me think of him and hope all was still going well. So glad to hear it is.
He looks so great...and getting so big.
Sending lots of love and prayers.
I finally got to go home at 4 pounds...so, fingers crossed he continues to improve and when he is healthy and strong enough he can go home --- and everyone can PARTY!
Wonderful news - I was wondering how he was going - what JOY this little fellow is going to bring the day he comes home.
Yes a party would be the ticket - what a joyous occasion that will be!
what a fine party it will be too!
So, so sweet. I'm so glad that he's doing well. I'll keep you all in my prayers.
Please send me a cupcake from the party.(if there's any left)
God bless this precious miracle baby, Kellan. Thank you for updating us. He has been in my prayers.
I am so happy to hear about your great nephew. I have been thinking about him. Babies are such miracles. I definitely think you need to have a party when he comes home.
What a handsome little guy! I'm so happy to hear that he is doing better. He will be in my prayers. I hope you get to have the best party ever to welcome him home.
Ohhh, that is great! What a blessing!
Awww...still so tiny but hanging in there!! Good for him!
Look at that sweet little guy! Hooray for fattening fingers!
