baby steps
Tuesday, July 28, 2009 by Dave
We took a few more baby steps forward today. Each step is closer to the hospital exit door that leads to the road that takes our daughter Riley Grace home.
The IV is gone. Our baby girl's eating progress has been remarkable and she is now off all machines. Thank you for your prayers. We thank God that this small burden has been lifted. Can you imagine how great it feels to lift our baby and kiss her beautiful head without being concerned about dislodging the IV?
Chowing down. Sheri and Riley Grace make a fantastic team. They just focus and get it done. We hit her goal feeding amount of 32cc tonight. This is her full feed and what she will need to consistently eat to gain weight. This next 24 hours will be an important gauge on her ability to do this.
Gaining weight. Today's weight 3lbs 13.3oz
Thanking God for his grace and love each step of the way.

yahooooo!
the girls are sitting right here w/me and the first thing I said was "her IV is gone! yipppeee!"
praising God with you guys for all the machines to be out of the way -and praying she is able to continue to eat like a champ. :)
Such great news!!! I love seeing her with her bottle and so alert. We are hopefully bringing home Baby Faith today :)
Hugs, Harmony
Good job girls! You guys make a great team. Riley will be home in no time!
