September 15, 2008 2:15 pm

Good afternoon! We are having a quiet day here in dreary Birmingham. Over the weekend the doctors increased Laurie's feeds to 33 cc every 3 hours, but have not made any other changes today. I am still feeding her with a bottle for two feedings a day--6:30 a.m. and p.m. Laurie also continues to grow and weighed 4 lbs. 2 oz. last night. She is on 28% oxygen in her isolette, so hopefully we will be at room air (21%) very soon and can move to an open crib. Although Cole was not able to go in to see Laurie this weekend due to having a "runny nose", we enjoyed having Todd, Cole, and Mrs. Judy here with us! The time just passes too fast on the weekends when they are here! Thanks for continuing to check in on Laurie and for your prayers. Please continue to pray for her lung development, eyes, and resistance to infections!

Love,
Todd, Leah, Cole, and Laurie

Hi, Leah!
That baby is growing and about
to be breathing room air and eating
all her meals herself. I'm glad
things are going well and can hardly wait until you guys are
back home! love, Nancy

Leah,
The pictures are beautiful of Laurie Anne. She has come soooo far and will be home before you know it. Just wanted to say hello and let you know we are thinking of you and continuing to pray for each of you.
Love,
