Good Progress

Nathan and Owen are doing well and making good progress. As of this morning, Owen weighed 4 lbs 4 oz and Nathan weighed 3lb 6oz. Nathan is still doing well off his cafcid and only has three more days to go of his countdown. Owen is still hanging on to his nasal cannula. We are praying he will breath well enough to get rid of it quickly. I would love for it to be gone on Monday to celebrate along with Nathan's countdown completion and good head ultrasound we are praying for. Nathan and Owen receive OT everyday and the therapist says that both have great muscle tone. Nathan had a check up with his eye doctor today. There is a very small spot in his eye that is not looking great. It is a very small spot and the doctor is hoping it will turn around and start going away. No need for injections or laser at this time, and probably no need for it ever. Please just continue to pray for this too. Nathan moved up to 29ml every three hours. Soon he will go to "adlib" feedings which is as much as he wants every 4 hours. His nurses think he will really begin to pack on the pounds then since he will be getting a lot more. The boys still really enjoy bunking together.


Tonight we celebrated Kristen's birthday. We had a great time eating together and playing nertz.
