Saela has taken all of her feedings orally today. She is slowly getting the hang of breastfeeding - but is at least taking the remainder by bottle. If she continues to feed well, we will be able to have her feeding tube removed! She should be out of her isolette by the end of the day today or early tomorrow. We're hopeful that by Tuesday/Wednesday of this week that we will be homeward bound.
Saela has had some new visitors over the weekend from Minnesota (Aunt Kara and Uncle Ben) and South Dakota (Grandpa Bill). They drove all night Friday just to come see her. Jax and Jilly have wondered what was up with all of the extra faces - I suppose they will be even more surprised when we bring home a permanent new face. My mom left today - it was sad to see her go - but she will be back as often as she is able to make the trip. All of our family and friends have been so helpful - we are truly blessed. We know that all of the prayers have helped to speed Saela's recovery.
Well - that's about all - I figure the less there is to report the better! Pretty soon we'll just have regular baby updates - won't that be nice!!
Have a Great Labor Day -
Love,
the Greens
