Skylar has made it to 4 pounds 5 ounces!

In the last week or so there hasn't been a lot of changes. Skylar is still on the CPAP and learning to breathe on her own. The nurses moved her from a incubater to a crib because she was holding her own temperature. She is getting to be a big girl, out growing her premie clothes, and getting chubby arms and cheeks. She is soo cute! I haven't seen her for a few days because I have had a cold, but she has been spending quality time with her daddy! Skylar loves to be held now and she enjoys having her little butt patted, it calms her down. We hope she will keep moving right along and get off the CPAP and onto the nasal canula. Skylar had another head ultrasound this week and the bleed in her head did get a little bigger, so the doctors will follow up again in 2 weeks. If it continues to get worse they may have to drain it, but they are hopeful it will resolve itself. Ryan and I pray she may continue to keep going and get home soon. It is hard not having her home with us, but we know she is still a month early from her due date and her lungs still need some more time to get stronger.
