Amelia loves "mommy time"! She has gotten to the point where she is taking everything by mouth and starting to put on the weight! She weighed in at 3 lbs. 5 1/2 oz. last night!!! We are so excited that she is growing so well and that there has been no complications. I spend a lot of time with Amelia feeding and holding her. Although it isn't as often as I'd like, it is what it is. If I could hold her and look at her all day I probably would, but I don't think she would like that too much. She knows when I'm suppose to be there and is ready to eat when I am there. It is fun to see her little personality shine through!!



Rob gave her a bottle the other night. We want him to get used to feeding her too and her used to him. She drank like a pro! We are so excited to get her home! It is still a while before she will come home, but her eating from a bottle is a huge step in the right direction! She isn't allowed to go home unless she has everything orally! We are loving it!

I am glad she is growing and doing well!
Awesome things are going so well, she's looking so cute! Love the pics they are sweet!
Hi Heather, you don't know me, (and I don't know you) but I am Ben Fuhriman's sister and just happened onto your blog through Steph's, anyway, my point in writing is Amelia. How cute is she! Two of my husbands sisters had babies at 26 weeks, neither one was any bigger than Amelia, and now they are doing so great. One is 15 pounds and the other is 12 pounds. I think they are about 4 or 5 months old. Both were on oxygen for quite awhile. It is amazing how resilient babies are these days. Anyway, just thought I would share.

Thanks for all your comments! She is doing really well! We are really lucky of that fact!
Darci, it is amazing how these little babies grow! Amelia has been working on getting herself off of oxygen, which is so great! We have been very blessed.
Congrats to both of you. I'm so happy just to look at the progress of your little angel Amelia. Well, God send you a lot of blessings by having the earthly custody of one of His children. God loves you and your beautiful family. "Nothing is impossible if you believe in HIM."
Love you guys.Take care...
