Hello everyone!!! Sorry for the delayed update. Addi is doing fantastic, continuing to impress all of the doctors and nurses with her progress. She is continuing to eat very well, now consuming 60cc of milk every three hours. She always wakes up about 15 minutes before it is time to eat to let us know that she is expecting to be fed. :) She seems to be awake for a little bit longer every day. She has Matt's beautiful blue eyes! She has also found her left thumb when her pacifier is not readily available. Addi is a pretty calm baby unless she is ready to eat or needs to burp.
We have been truly, truly blessed!!!
I do think that Matt is getting a little restless being away from Hutchinson, America but is doing well. Hard to believe that Addi has gotten Matt to change a diaper and read something besides a farm magazine. (Matt has been reading literature that the hospital has given us as well as the car seat directions, pretty cute!! He wants to make sure that Addi is properly cared for.)
The doctors are talking that they may let us go home on Monday. YEAH!!! Addi is continuing to gain weight and maintain her temperature.
That is about all for now. We are really enjoying our addition to our family and continue to Praise God for his miracle. A huge thanks to everyone for their prayers and continued support!
Love to all-Matt, Valerie, Addi
