First time holding him

We got a surprise today. The doctor said that heather could briefly hold the baby. After a flurry of nurses moved wires, machines and hoses around, they lifted him into her arms as she sat in a chair. His system didn't handle it very well and his oxygen saturation dropped low. So they had to put him back in the incubator after a couple minutes. We didn't have our camera today, but we have some polaroids that the nurses took. Next time we'll get some pictures to upload.
