He started eating again, pedialite at first. He was so excited and hungry he drank 1 oz in about 15 seconds! He is now up to his normal 6 oz of formula.
He also had some visiters. The girls enjoyed coloring in their new colostomy coloring books. But they had the most fun playing in the toy room! (Payton who?!?) Grandma and grandpa also came to visit.
He woke up this morning all Smiles, which was good to see. He is off the IV and morphine so pain must be tolerable with just the Tylenol now.

We should be able to leave tomorrow afternoon. We could have left today but we are waiting for the stoma nurse to show us how to change the ostomy bag so we don't have any problems at home. She is coming tomorrow at 1pm. It's definetly going to take some time getting used to seeing, emptying, and changing the ostomey bag. It's not pretty when it is full of poop! and doesn't smell good when full of gas!
Thanks for all the comments and the support. We really apprieciate it!
