Happy Birthday Callie (a day late!)!!!


Happy 1 Month Birthday Callie (a day late!!) Sorry, we had some computer issues the past few days! Callie is doing well with her feedings and they have increased her intake over the last few days. She is up to 8cc's every four hours! We just can't wait until these feeds start reflecting in her weight!! As of last night, she is 1 lb 12 oz...so we are slowly getting there!! Other than that, things have been pretty quiet. They are still trying to get the fluid out of her lungs so that she can breathe better, but it sounds like it will not happen over night. So we are just thankful for every little improvement she can make on the ventillator. We just hope she can get some rest and save her calories to help her heal and grow!

  5. Happy Birthday Callie! You are getting to be such a big girl - one month old.

    You look very relaxed and comfy during this "tummy time" pic. Mommy's milk is helping to make you bigger and stronger. Keep it up! You'll be 2 lbs...then 3 lbs... before you know it.

    We love you very, very much.

    Love,
    Kim and Jack
    XOXOXO
