there are so many great nurses at the NICU. like any other situation though, you form special relationships with certain people. conley has formed relationships with a few, including Pat, his primary nurse and one of his most favorites day nurses. she knows conley like the back of her hand and she gave me the scoop this morning. he's doing great. the weight he's gaining is real weight, not water weight. his lungs are clear and they're weaning him on his oxygen. the pressure is at the lowest setting and they're weaning the oxygen content. they increased him to 30cc every three hours. that's a full ounce every three hours. he has his dad's appetite. please keep praying he continues onward at such a good pace and that we're able to work our schedule in such a way that we can hold him enough and give him the human contact he needs. thanks so much. we're getting there one day at a time.
-love-

Thank you for the blessing of holding precious Conley the other day. It meant more to me that I can put words to. I look at him and marvel at the awesome God we have. Tiny fingers and toes in perfect formation. Little lips that I pray will one day proclaim the greatness of our Lord. May Conley be a mighty warrior for God's Kingdom.
Our HERO looks great and the progress reports keep getting better and better. We continue to lift each of you up and are excited that Mr. Malachi finally gets to meet his little brother face to face. God is so good.
Make sure you two take time for yourselves... a date night or something where you can reconnect as a couple.
When Matt and i were taking care of Sally it was very hard to find time for each other and it took A LOT of work to wiggle in a few extra minutes alone with one another. Perhaps you guys are able to already do that but just in case... that is in my prayer today.
Love ya!
