Purple Pumpkin

Adam, like many of his older siblings has elevated billirubin which has given him the lovely coloring of a summer squash. Actually, he has passed through the squash color and progressed to early pumpkin orange-yellow. He will be spending the night at NICU, under some bili lights. The twins spent some time under those lights at this age, and they just loved it. They slept the whole time, really enjoying that sunbathing-like experience. Adam hates it. The nurses said they've never seen a baby hate it so much. When he finally stops screaming, he's knocked his sunglasses off his eyes and wakes up (and starts screaming again) when they are replaced. Well anyway, our little orange/yellow/purple pumpkin is an interesting color now....
