Brady is doing well. He has been bumped up to 'preemie' status by the nurses...they changed his isolette and gave him a bigger binkie and diaper this week. Now, he isn't a 'micro preemie' anymore. The docs put Brady on a feeding schedule...it starts out very gradually at 10 ml over a 2 hour period then off for an hour then 10 ml, etc. They also put Brady on a weekly check instead of daily. He is getting to be a big boy:) Today, he weighed in at 2 lbs. 10.5 oz.---he's inching toward that 3 lb. mark!
David and Delaney went to the NICU Sibling Night last night. They really enjoyed it. They got to make a craft and play games with other children that have baby brothers or sisters in the NICU. It was really good for them...especially since they aren't able to visit Brady right now.
Hugs to all and thank you so much for continued prayers.

  3. How great for the hospital to recognize the other children, that is really neat! I am sure both David and Delaney are anxious to see him and begin their bonding as well. We continue to think of you all on a daily basis, continue prayers! We love you all!
