We have a 5 pounder today!

Hi- We had a great day at the hospital today. Brock hit 5 pounds! He is taking all 8 of his feedings from a bottle and doing well. He is eating about 45cc's and doing really great in there. He will need to work on eating well and not having any brady's (periods were he stops breathing) for 5 days. He had three today while I was there feeding him so this is what may take us awhile.

Christian had a clean head scan today! Yeah!!!! It showed no visable difference from his week one scan. Praise the Lord he is doing well! He weighed in at 4 pounds, 8 oz (same as yesterday) and was up to 25 cc's and they will reduce his fluids when he hits 26 cc's tonight. They talked about trying to bottle feed him again soon and we will see what the developmental feeding nurse says.

The boys were trying to help dad celebrate his birthday today as well as the Steelers' home opener tonight.

Thank you all so much for the prayers for our little boys. God's hands have been placed upon them and he has watched out for our little men through this journey.
