From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another. -John 1:16
Our strong girl almost rolled off of the scale today!
Celia has gained 4 ounces from the last posted weight!
She had another bath and Grandma Margo was there to watch.
Grandma Margo was able to hold Celia for the first time today. Celia stared at her eyes the whole time and grabbed for her finger. It was such a beautiful thing to witness!
Each day, Celia is increasing her breast milk volume. She is slowly being weaned off of the TPN and we are hoping to be done with that soon. She continues to gain weight and have regular bowel movements. Today she had an ultrasound of her head, which is a common procedure of most preemies. Praise the Lord that this came back all clear! This NICU room is filled with so much joy and excitement! Julya and Alex are doing such a great job of learning how to take care of this tiny baby girl. Please pray for Celia's and her parents' continued health and rest. Our whole family is so touched by all of you who are praying for our sweet baby girl! Thank you! Glory to GOD!
He is the one you praise; he is your God; who performed for you those great and awesome wonders you saw with your own eyes. -Deuteronomy 10:21
