Laurie sleeping and growing!
Cole is so excited that Laurie has on clothes!
Laurie already has Daddy wrapped around her tiny, little finger!
Good afternoon! Laurie has had another great day! The doctors have decreased her rate on the C-pap again and she is tolerating it well. Hopefully, we can wean off the C-pap soon. They also increased her feeds to 17 cc every 3 hours and she weighed 2 lbs. 7 oz. last night. All cultures from last Thursday's work-up have been negative and they have discontinued her antibiotics. As of now Laurie will stay in the RNICU until the end of the month. We will meet with the nurse managers from both floors and have a better transition plan in place before trying to move Laurie again!!
We enjoyed the weekend with Todd and Cole here with us! As our time apart grows longer, saying goodbye on Sundays in becoming more difficult for all of us, especially Cole. Please continue to pray for Laurie's growth and for Cole's adjustment to the situation. We sincerely thank you for your continued prayers--it has sustained us through the last two months!!!
Love to all!
Todd, Leah, Cole, and Laurie

Hi Leah!
It sounds like you've had a very
good day! I can't believe Laurie
is almost two and a half pounds!
I got to see Emily's 4-D baby pics
today. Another sweetie cousin for Laurie and Cole. Maybe Laurie will
beat her home. I hope you have a
very good week. We're praying for
you all. Love, Nancy
Your son is so precious! And are those the beginnings of some rolls on Laurie Anne?! She's definitely *plumpening up.* Hooray!
Praying for a calm, peaceful week of growth for all of you.
PS When I had my second child, someone told me to let the older child hear you say to the baby every now and then, "You'll have to wait a minute while I do such-and-such for Cole." Perhaps that might help Cole to hear you *tell* Laurie sometimes that you have to leave her for a little while to spend time with him (even if it's just to go out to the hall or to the apartment). Just a thought.
Here's hoping that time passes quickly until you're all home together.
So glad you had a good weekend together. I know the separation is hard on all of you and especially Cole. I'll keep all of you in my prayers. Laurie is really growing. I can see a real difference in the pictures, can't wait to see her again!!
Love, Judy
