BREAKING NEWS!!!

We went to see Lillie tonight and she had moved. She is no longer in the NICU. She is now in the intermediate care unit!!!! That is a big step up! They actually have the lights on, music playing, you can talk in a regular voice, and the babies wear clothes!!! The nurse had me pick out an outfit for her to wear after her 11:30 bath. She also lost her belly button IV. The nurse is also going to take out her feeding tube tonight. That thing should of been gone a long time agoa, she doesn't need it and never did! They moved her up to 25cc's but she ate 30cc's. The nurse also talked about giving her an additive to the breast milk that will help her gain weight. All good news! She won't be weighed until 11:30 tonight but I have a feeling she has gained weight.

We just had a great evening. I held her and feed her. She took her 30cc's in less than 5 minutes. Then Chris did his kangarooing and read "Guess how much I love you." She snoozed most of the time. Draven and I looked at his Star Wars books and we chatted with the nurse. We also found out her nurse is a relative of my step fathers. She was very sweet! All is well here. Tomorrow I will have updates on weight gain. She is just so healthy and we are very happy. Just one step closer to getting her home.


She is growing in to Kate's It's a Girl! hat.

Lillie almost cordless.

She was stretching in Poppy's hands. He doesn't like this picture, I think it is cute.
