Making Progress

My mommy is the best snuggler!

Faith continues to make progress and seems to get stronger and better at taking bottles every day! She did a great job on Monday night for Nurse Nikita and was great for Nurse Debbie during the day today. She even took a bottle of 40 CC's, the most formula she has taken from a bottle in the NICU.

Faith received her first package addressed to her here at home and it was a book from her buddies in St. Louis called, I Love You Through and Through. Mommy and Daddy plan on taking the book in when we visit Faith tomorrow. We needed a break and a little R&R so we decided to come home after eating dinner at the hospital and Faith's 6:00 care. We are hoping that not getting home at 11:30 will help us get through the day a little easier and be able to spend more time with her throughout the week.

Faith's doctor talked to us today about her "getting kicked out" of the NICU soon. She will most likely be transferred to another hospital, maybe even one closer to home as she continues to get stronger every day and make progress! We are taking one day at a time and will let everyone know once those things begin to happen. We are anxious to get her home, BUT know she is getting great care and we will have to continue to be patient until that time comes.

Thank you again for your thoughts and prayers!

Jess, Randy, Faith and Joey


I'm so intrigued by some of the things my daddy says!
