Happy Day! 

The day these girls get to go home is approaching! We still don’t know the exact date but it is SOON!!! 

Trenna has crept up on Ellie and she is taking more feed by bottle than her now. She is doing so well that they were able to take out her feeding tube. Trenna is now just a little baby in a big crib, no wires or tubes necessary to keep this little girl going. She is on her own! She is weighing in at 3 lbs and 11 1/2 oz. The nurses have even placed Trenna on the maximum amount she can eat. They stopped Shannon this morning to laugh about how if they didn’t max her out, she would just keep on eating and eating. She keeps meeting her MLs goal.

Ellie is still doing really well, and yes she still has her feeding tube in. They had to place her on some prevacid because she kept getting an upset stomach. Feeding time has become much more enjoyable for her, and she is already showing to be taking much more feed from the bottle. Over the next few days with taking the med, we expect to see much more improvement! She is now weighing in at 6 lbs and 15oz, so close to 7 lbs!

Shannon has been getting lots of ‘going home’ education for the girls lately, and Ellie could still go home even with the tube still in if she continues to not take a full bottle. We can see the light at the end of the tunnel! 

Ephesians 5:20 - Giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, 

James 1:17 - Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.
