Applesauce on the side.

This afternoon, they started increasing the pace of Lewis' feeds. Just a little bit - 90 ml every 2.5 hours, then a half hour break each time. (In lieu of 30 ml/h continuous). He's had a couple rounds of that schedule and it seems to be going just fine. The docs also added a couple of teaspoons of applesauce 3 times a day. He seems to like the applesauce - the nurse we just spoke with said he ate straight from the little spoon and got it everywhere, but had fun.

During the day today, Lewis had a sonogram on his hips - the developemental pediatrician was worried about how stiff they are. We don't have the results yet. He's also scheduled for his next MRI tomorrow early afternoon. Depending on his mood, that may be a little trying, since they need to strap him to a papoose board.

Lewis was in a pretty good mood most of the day. When he got fussy, he was pretty easily consoled. It may be my imagination, but I think the rash was a little better too.
