...Day 20-21...

Day 20

Thursday May 16, 2013
Doing great off the Anderson tube! She is surprising all the nurses and doctors! Today they started feeding her by bottle 4 mL which is like nothing at all but awesome that she is finally able to taste the food! The first time she didn't quite know what was going on or what we were trying to do but the second time we started with the binky and then quickly switched over to the bottle and she did amazing! Every feeding after that she downed it like nobody's business and wanted more! We have to go slow though and take it a little bit at a time!
 She loves to cuddle with Mom and she loves to be bundled up!
Aunt Kelli was in town and we got a visit from her! We were so excited!

Day 21

Friday May 17, 2013
Still eating her 4 mL out of the bottle! Still downing it!
She is really good at eating while sleeping to!
Also Aunt Sam came to visit! We always love visitors!
She is doing really well at this point! Still tall and skinny! Doctors are hoping to slowly keep increasing her feeds each day a little at a time! Today I think we hit 8 mL which is still not much but progress! 1oz. = 30 mL so she isn't even getting 1/2 an ounce!
Gma and Gpa Wallin and Isaac are up here as well! Isaac had state track at BYU! We went and saw him run his event this morning and we are hoping to go see him run again tomorrow!
