Kayleigh It’s been a very busy weekend! The rehearsal on Friday, then the wedding on Saturday — more about those later — then a late start Sunday and to the hospital. We didn’t get to go on Friday and Saturday, but there were lots of changes while we were gone! The nitric oxide was removed, no more antibiotics, no more blood pressure medicines, they started her feedings again — she’s getting 3.5 mililiters now, every 4 hours — the oxygen is coming down all the time, the bilirubin light is gone, and her IV moved to her foot. SO, since the IV moved, I got to hold her for the first time today!

She’s still so tiny, of course, and she slept through the whole thing, so I still haven’t seen her eyes, but it was amazing!

I know I’m slow on responding to people about stuff, everywhere, left and right, but I’ll catch up eventually! I feel like I have no time for anything these days. Hopefully starting tomorrow things will turn around a bit as we settle into a schedule and I’ll start to be able to breathe!
