3lbs and climbing!

What a wonderful day! We finally reached a goal. You three are gaining weight day by day, once by once. Grandpa Lane told me today that he isn't surprised that you three are at full feeds, he has been at full feeds for many many years.

Savannah and Cheyenne, you two got a special treat today! You both got your first baths and you mother was able to give them to you.

Savannah, you are at 2 lbs 10 oz today. Your still on CPAP, and your doing well on it. To tell you the truth, you really didn't like your first bath, and you told you momma all about it. You are doing so good, just keep growing.

Cheyenne, you kinda didn't mind your bath; you just laid there like you were at the pool. Your 2 lbs 7 oz today. The cultures the doctors took a couple of day ago came back negative, which means that you don't have to be on antibiotics. The doctors still have you on the ventilator, but you are coming down on your settings little by little.

Brody, you made it to the 3 lbs mark today! You actually weighed in at 3 lbs 1oz. It really is amazing how well you and your sisters are feeding. The doctors did another tap on your reservoir today and got another 10 cc of spinal fluid, and the fluid was clearer than last time which means your body is starting to break down the blood from the bleeds. You have been doing so much better since the surgery, keep growing because your sister are catching you in the weight department.

Savannah and Cheyenne are still at UNMH, and Brody is still at Presbyterian. We go back and forth trying to spend time with all of them as much as we can. The doctors are suppose to be able to tell us what the next step is tomorrow about getting the kids back together. At this moment we still have no clue if the girls or Brody will transfer. Our worst fear is that they wont transfer at all, but we believe that the doctors and our insurance have the best interest of the kids in their heads. So hopefully they will get them back together before the week is out.

Lane Family & loved ones,
You don't know me; but I work with Aunt Amber and her good friend Kelly. I have been keeping up on the baby news since you became pregnant. I check on the babies every day and can't wait for new pictures.
Your whole family as well as the many medical caregivers have been wrapped in a blanket of prayers from my church.
I'm sorry Brody is away from his sisters; but Pres will take good care of him. They saved my little peanut when he was born premmie.
Take care of yourselves and make sure you get plenty of rest and eat well; so you can keep your strength up. You are going to need it when they all get home!!
Thank you for keeping us updated.
In His Love,
Marlyn
