Miss Katelee continues to grow and learn. She tried breast feeding a little again today, and she decided it wasn't so bad. She didn't eat too long that way, but she did get some milk. Her intake is being increased each feeding now, and she is up to 17 cc.
She was given some clothes to wear today, and her temperature inside her isolated crib will slowly be lowered. This is in an attempt to eventually move her to an open crib.
Olivia continues to do well with all the transition. We are hoping to introduce the girls face to face tomorrow. One of the pediatricians said we might be able to swing that for a few minutes. We'll be sure to get lots of pics of that.
Right now, sleep is the hot commodity. We visit Katelee every 3 hours for about an hour. Then, Courtney has to pump, which takes 15 - 30 minutes. That gives about 1.5 hours before doing it all again. We are fortunate enough to have great nurses take care of Katelee during the midnight hours, so we don't have to make those times (although Courtney still does sometimes).
Courtney also continues to heal nicely. We were blessed to be given a hospitality room at the hospital while Katelee is here. It is on one wing, so it takes some walking to get back to the NICU. Thus, Courtney is getting her walking done.
Thanks for all the prayers!
