Nathan pic

Since I did not have any pictures to post last night of Nathan we took this one this morning so everyone could see a recent photo. Nathan was extubated today, which means he no longer has the tube going down his throat and is breathing via nasal canula. When we visit him in the morning I will get some new pictures, ones that will allow everyone to see him without tons of tape and big tubes. All of the tape on top of his head is from an IV that is running in to his head. Prayer request for Nathan: God would continue to heal his intestines, his stomach would look and be ready for feedings on Wednesday (right now they are planning to feed on Wednesday but wish his stomach looked like a better candidate for good. So, we ask you to join us in prayer that his stomach would look like a perfect candidate on Wednesday. BTW: there is a shadow on part of Nathan's head, it is not some weird shape or anything.

Owen is doing well. He is up to 15.5 ml of milk every three hours. I was able to hold him today and he really enjoyed it. They are going to begin adding human milk fortified to my milk to give him a little more calories.
