We Never Know What Life Holds

Adam is doing well. The nurses started giving him formula every 6 hours, a small amount to stimulate the stomach; he was advanced to every 3 hours because he tolerated it well.
Adam was having periods of apnea, otherwise known as periods where he wasn't breathing. Yesterday they gave him a little bit of caffeine to help him breath more. He did great; breathing went back to a regular rate. Mom was able to hold his head up while they changed his diaper :)

Ava's chest tube is out. Great news. She is still on the ventilator receiving breaths, but her oxygen saturation looks great. We just need her to start breathing on her own, not relying on the machine 100%. Ava has another ultrasound of her head today. We are waiting anxiously for the results.
These precious angels are hanging in there. Thank you God for your miracles.
