Jaundice Strikes little Luke

Although we're already on the other side of it (we think) - for a while there our little Luke was definitely... yellow! We thought at first he had a nice bronze-y tone to him... and then slowly it turned to more of a fake-bake sort of look... and then we happened to put him in a yellow jamma outfit, and - holy jaundice batman! We took him to the hospital for some lab tests (Andy says it's a good thing I didn't take him in... it wasn't fun), and the little bugger's been nursing up a storm to help move it through his system (not so fun for me). The good news is that our bronzed little babe is getting back to normal, and settling into a fine olivey look.

Phew!

Other than that blip, things are going as expected: we're sleeping very little at night; he's feeding well and lots, and Maren is adjusting to her new little brother... more on that later!
