Savannah-3 weeks old

The pictures from yesterday that I was not able to upload until now:

Here is today's update...
Savannah is 3 weeks old today. She is now eating 2cc every 3 hours and is tolerating the feeds. She weighs 2lbs 5oz. She is being weaned off the Sipap and is currently breathing 80% room air. Her aunt Michelle and I made cookies for the nurses in honor of her 3 week birthday :) I also made a sign for isolette. 3 weeks seem to have flown by but at the same time it feels like an eternity and that our lives have so drastically changed in just 3 weeks.

Savannah did really well today. I was able to hold her for the longest time yet- 2.5 hours. During this time, she had a few desats but she recovered on her own. It was great to hold her for so long. I just held her and prayed over her and day dreamed of our family's future together. She squirmed from time to time but mostly just slept peacefully.

Please continue to pray for her development, to be infection free and that she will continue on a forward progression to coming home.

Here are the pictures from today. I took more pictures but they were too dark so they didn't come out.
