We are getting there!!

Addison continues to do well. The nurses are so amazed at how well she is doing for how small she is. She is up to 3#12oz!!! She is just a few grams away from 3#13oz. She is at 34mL every 3 hours for her feedings and tolerating them well. Yesterday, she took ALL of her feedings by bottle-- nothing down her tube!! Last night she did wake up for all her feedings, but didn't drink all of it.

We did take our car seat in to the NICU for her car seat test. In order to pass the test she has to sit buckled in her seat 1.5 hours and have no alarms (heart rate or oxygen dips). This is to make sure she is safe sitting in an upright position.

Her roof is OFF!!! She is maintaining her temperature fine and doing well :)

We are currently at the hospital updating the blog because we moved to our new home yesterday!! I do not have cable or internet hooked up yet :(. I will try to keep the blog up by taking my computer around to get Wi-Fi.
