Skylar is 30 weeks today and Friday 4 weeks old!

The last few days Skylar has really been doing well. The doctors took her iv fluids away, (her milk shake and gatorade) and is dependent 100 percent on my milk. Her feedings are up to 16 mls every 3 hours and she has become quit the little pooper!! She is still very small and the doctors are hoping she can gain some more weight and maintain it. She goes up and down, but is staying between the 1lb 13 or 14 ounce range, just shy of 2 pounds!! Skylar has also discovered that laying on her belly is very comfortable, she loves it! She looks so cute too! Last night Ryan was able to hold his little girl for the first time and it was an awesome experience. She did so well and seems to be a daddy's girl!! She loves him. He was able to hold her for about 2 hours and he loved every minute of it! Holding our little girl has been amazing, it is truly an instant bond for all 3 of us. To feel her move on us and to smell her hair is the best. We definetly look forward to holding her and hope to do it almost every night. Skylar is such an amazing little person, she is so strong and we look forward to celebrating her one month birthday with her this Friday!
