Sunday


Nora is now an on-demand feeder--so she can eat when she wants and they'll just be monitoring it to make sure she's taking in enough food and gaining weight.  if she does well on this, her n-g tube will come out.  she weighs 4 pounds 12 ounces.  she will have a car seat test in the next couple days to make sure she can breathe well while she rides in a carseat.

Ryan looks better.  getting bigger--weighs 4 pounds 12 ounces too.  doing great with his feeds at 8mL/hr and the surgeons expect to go up to 9mL/hr tomorrow. he was really alert and acting very normal for me today.  

Here are some pictures from Friday when they got to meet another Auntie! (8 weeks old)

    I have sat here for several minutes trying to say the right thing. God is so good. Nora and Ryan have -- from that NICU many miles from so many who have prayed and who are praying for them -- brought us all closer to God as we have interceded for them. May their lives continue to draw others to Him. What a blessing to be even a small part of this miracle! The Florida Botts

    I wholeheartedly agree. Thank God.
    May it all go up from here.

    OH Jess and John...They are so stinkin' cute! We are constantly praying for them and you both. What you have been through is the most harrowing ordeal I can imagine. May God continue to bless you and hold you in His hands.

    xoxo,
    Jody
