quick update

Just some fun facts:

• Avery now weighs 1 lb 10.5 ounces
• She is 13 inches long and grew an inch and 1/4 in a week!
• Her head is growing at a steady pace
• She is now completely off IV feeds and is getting all of her nutrition and calories from a combination of my milk and human milk fortifier. She is up to 24 calories per feeds.
• She went through 3 diapers and peed on her daddy all in one care
• She is back to getting time on the cannula. Right now she only gets two 2 hour shifts, but she LOVES it and does fantastic.
• Her apnea spells are decreasing. She is still having issues saturating w/ oxygen and is higher on her 02, but then again she grew 1.25 inches in a week, that must take a lot of energy!
• We get to hold her again! Only once a day for now, but that is better than not holding her at all.
• I am still completely terrified to flip her from her back to her belly and for the 2nd day in a row made the nurse do it. Hopefully some day soon I will realize I will NOT, indeed, break her in half.
• We read her first book today and she loved it. Thank you Barkley family for starting off her personal library.
• Her daddy took 49 pictures during a 30 minute care session. I think he likes her just a little.
• And finally, she is still super adorable, amazing and overall awesome!



Thanks Nurse Gayle for my cute hair ribbon



Story time and snuggles with daddy. Life. Is. Good.



Just showing you all how big I am.
