Happy 1 Week Birthday, Annie!









Annie's one week birthday is today. So much has happened in the past 7 days to make us proud parents. In one week, she's:

1.) Moved from a tube in her lungs to the CPAP that regulates her lung pressure
2.) Started to feed on mommy's breastmilk
3.) Taken off the phototherapy when her bilirubin levels dropped
4.) Gained 0.5 oz in the past two days
5.) Moved from a radiant warmer to an isolette
6.) Maintains her own body temperature
7.) Had 3 Kangaroo care sessions with Mommy and Daddy
8.) Her PDA valve has closed on its own

It's been an amazing week for Annie!! She has done such a great job and had such amazing progress in one short week. Thanks for all of your prayers throughout this journey so far. Please keep praying for Annie during the next week and throughout her NICU stay.

We know that God is guiding our sweet little miracle through her journey.

"All things are possible to him who believes."

Please enjoy the pictures of our sweet little girl on her one week birthday! Her nurse, Jessica, gave her a pretty pink hat to wear that a lady makes for all of the special babies in the NICU. Doesn't she look lovely? Also, Annie weighed in at 1 lb 12.9 ounces tonight. Slowly but surely!
