Lilli Update
Her edema has cleared up after a dose of Lasix. As of December 7th, she is up to 40 CC of breast milk. She is starting to get the hang of drinking from the bottle. Last night and this morning she took about 25 CC via the bottle and the rest through the tube. For the 2pm feeding I gave her, she drank 17 CC via the bottle for me, I was so happy! I think Sean gave her a pep talk over the weekend and that is why she is drinkng more :) Her improved bottle drinkng all began when he fed her over the weekend. She went from about 3-5 CC with the bottle on Thursday and Friday to 10 CC for each feeding Sean did over the weekend. As of last night (December 7th) she weighs 4lbs 10 oz. She is really growing like weed!Over the weekend we took our Family Christmas pictures while visiting Lilli at the NICU. We found a really cute photo prop to use as the background. I dressed Lilli in the same Christmas dress that we used for Lexi when she was in the NICU.

You guys are so cute together. Its amazing how much she looks like Lexi... well, all of you!!! I can't wait for her to come home, but I am just speaking to the choir, right? Glad to hear she is doing so well. Tell Sean to keep giving her those pep talks :)
Heather, Sean, Lexi and Lilli,
Blessings on your wonderful family this holiday and always. Your family is beautiful.
WOW she really is the spitting image of Lexi, especially in the cute little Christmas outfit. It was great seeing you guys and I hope you all have a great Christmas.
God Bless
