Things are looking great!

(above) Madison is looking at her Daddy while he holds her.
Madison is grabbing on to Daddy's chest hair. Youch!

Madison is doing very well. Within the next few days, the plan is to take her off of antibiotics, take out her pick line which is no longer needed, and take her off of her air flow! Madison is now just one ounce shy of 3 lbs!! She is up to 18ml of breast milk every 3 hours. She even starts to get cranky near the time of her feedings. She wants that milk!! She's a growing girl! She's even graduated to the "big girl" diapers because she has grown so much. Madison is still undergoing photo-therapy to prevent Jaundice, so she has to wear a protective eye mask all of the time, which hides her pretty little face. Hopefully she will be off of this soon! Thanks for following Madison's blog. She appreciates your support! Thanks again to friends and family who have sent their warm wishes through emails, cards, and gifts. Madison should be sending you thank you cards soon!!!!

  3. Good Job, Little "M"! So happy to hear you're in big girl panties now! Quite the accomplishment. Do they make high heels for preemies? Oops! I think I skipped a few years!

    Lots of love and prayers still coming your way.
