Tippin' the scales...

Tim and I got up to see Addison tonight after another hectic day with the new house (and Tim working). She hasn't been doing well taking her bottles the past couple days which was discouraging to us. She is still taking a total of 32 mL whether she takes it by bottle or the nurses putting it through her tube. She weighed in tonight at 3#12oz!!! I think we may have a chunker on our hands ;).

I also spoke with the neonatal opthomalogist since she has had 4 eye tests in the past 2 weeks. Addison has some bleeding in both of her retinas. They do not know what causes this, but it does not affect her vision at all. It is something they will continue to monitor and it will hopefully resolve itself. So far it has not gotten better or worse.

We pray she starts to take her bottles better so she can come home and to get her out of her isolette.
Here is a pic of Addison from our visit today :)
