Lots to update...






Lots has happened this week! Emery is getting ready to go home! She got a new bed in the NICU as you can see from the picture. She got her feeding tube out as you can also see from the picture and she is doing tough love now. Tough love is where they take the feeding tube out and make them take the bottle. If they don't take the whole thing, they at least have to take a certain amount, then they have to get the feeling of hunger and wait a little while to eat. She is doing great with it and has taken all of her bottles so far today!
Emery also hit the 5 lb. mark!!!!! Major accomplishment!
We are getting so anxious to have her home and know that it won't be long and she will be with us.
In other news, Heather had her weight loss surgery today and it went well. I talked to my bro-in-law a little earlier and he said that everything went well. Please pray for her and the next few months as they will be a trying time.
We had a great Thanksgiving. Mom was able to come in and we all went to the hospital and spent the day there. There is nothing like Cafeteria Turkey and gravy... actually it wasn't so bad. Then we went over to J and Jac's for leftovers in the evening of real food! All in all it was a great day! Hope all of yours was blessed!
