Daddy's Day

Pretty much status quo on Hazel and Jude today. They are both looking pretty stable and the doctor is trying to wean both of them on their oxygen settings. Jude will get weaned from the SiPAP to the cannula. Hazel will get weaned from the cannula to NOTHING! Hazel has not had major spitups in several days. Yay Hazel! The doctor is increasing her feeds very slowly and she is currently tolerating more than she ever has, which is great! She still needs to get her colon working regularly, but for now, we're thankful that she is keeping her food down. She still has a ways to go before being on "full feeds", which is necessary to get rid of her picc line.

As for the title, "Daddy's Day", Noel was able to hold both Hazel and Jude tonight! (Obviously not at the same time, since they are in separate rooms.) It was his second time holding Hazel and his first time holding Jude. Very exciting! We'll post a picture soon, but I'm not on the right computer to do it right now. I hope you can stand the suspense.

Next year they will be the stars of the Christmas party. I think they were already last night. We are thrilled that they are making progress. Lots of love to all of you.
