Reese continues to thrive at home- her cheeks are getting chubbier by the day!, her appetite’s growing, her coos continue to melt our hearts, her grunts continue to crack us up (I need to post a video soon– you’ll laugh!), and she’s growing out of some of her preemie clothes.  What a precious time these past two weeks has been: a time of little sleep, but… lots of love.  We can’t wait for Riley to soon follow suit!  

Riley is still losing some weight (she doesn’t have much to spare!), but is eating very well, so no one’s too worried.  They think she’ll just need a higher calorie diet (fortifying mommy’s milk with more formula than currently).  Pray that she continue to gain weight!  She’s 2 times smaller than Reese now… but she’ll catch up.  The dr. still thinks Riley will come home either Tuesday or Wednesday (despite some weight loss… but wants her to gain over the next couple days).  We CAN’T WAIT!!  We know she, too, will thrive at home.  We can’t wait for the girls to be together again… it’s been almost 2 months since they’ve been side by side (in my belly!).  Thank you again for your prayers.  

Would you please pray for our friend’s nephew, Witt?  He was born on October 23 and is in the NICU at Texas Children’s.  He has been diagnosed with Edward’s Syndrome.  Click here or on the “button” below for the blog with all the latest news and specific prayer requests for Witt and his family.  We have not stopped praying for this precious baby and wonderful family.  Their faith is amazing.  Thank you!

I will leave you with a few pics of my girls… I cannot stop thanking the Lord for them and their health.  More soon….
