It's almost unbelievable, but Miss Rebekah celebrated her two month birthday today! She had a very low-key day, but did get to see Grampy and Grammy last night and this morning.
Justin loves his sister!
Rebekah is doing much better with her eating. Thank you all for praying; we are very excited to say that after a rough 24 hours immediately following the tube placement, Rebekah has done very well! The tube Rebekah has right now is an Ng tube (goes in through her nose to her stomach), and it is a more temporary type of Ng tube. Because it is more temporary, it is very stiff and does not stay taped to her cheek well. Rebekah surprised us (well, not really if you remember this) by pulling her tube out Thursday night. Thankfully it went in relatively easily and we were able to continue feeding her through the night. We are hoping that the doctor will replace it with a more flexible type of Ng tube that is designed to stay in for a few weeks at a time when we go for our follow-up appointment on Wednesday.
These two turkeys love their sister, too! Zachary and Aaron love to pose with Rebekah.
Speaking of Wednesday, we have another follow-up appointment with our cardiologist also. The two doctor's offices are conveniently located in the same building, so we will be able to go from one to the other easily. I know we will have an echo done on Wednesday, but I am not sure if there will be any other tests done.
Mommy loves the headwraps with bows! :)
We are hoping for a good weight gain when we have our check-up this week. I'm personally hoping for at least 8 ounces....we'll let you know!!
Have a blessed Lord's Day tomorrow!
Nancy
