5 Months Old

Bubbie is 5 months old today and weighing over 10lbs. He was able to come and visit our favorite spot this week, Arizona. He did wonderful flying and had no issues. He was also able to meet his aunt Skyeler and Uncle James, so fun! We continue to see him progress everyday with smiles, coos, […]

We are BACK!

So sorry I have been MIA since we have been home with Joseph. We have been getting the hang of our new normal with little man. He has had such a transformational few months since we left the NICU. We had a minor scare the second week home and were hospitalized for 4 days but […]

Home

We were able to come home with our miracle boy today, a month and a day before his due date! He is still on a low amount of oxygen and we have a heart rate monitor, this makes me at least feel much more secure! Our pediatrician will wean him off both when it’s safe, […]

Hallelujah

  We are so very close to coming home. Little man has made some great steps forward this week and a few steps back. He is eating all of his bottles with no problems, which is so amazing! He is off oxygen and only using it while he eats. This allows him to not waste […]

Goals

Joseph turned 2 months old yesterday and celebrated by weighing in at 3 pounds! We are so proud of his progress, in particularly in the last two weeks. He has gone from 2 to 3 pounds in just 16 days. He also transitioned from vapotherm to nasal cannula today which is a wonderful step forward. […]
