Bah Humbug











Today was a milestone for Cate. She took a full feeding from Mom for 22 minutes. When she finished she looked like a drunken sailor with a mouth full of milk spilling everywhere. This was a great Christmas gift for us!!! The yellow tube in her nose is a feeding tube. The more times she takes from Mom the better chance the tube is removed!!! Here are some pictures of the days events. The bah humbug picture (#2) is with her tongue out. The first 2 pictures were minutes after her feeding today. She is now at 3lbs 7oz and doubled her birth weight from 770g to 1540g. Merry Christmas!!!

She's HUGE! :) This is awesome news, you guys. I'm so proud of your little miracle. She has come a long way and she is such a strong little girl. We will pray for continued good feedings so you can ditch the NG tube. MERRY CHRISTMAS!! xoxo
