We had a momentous occassion yesterday!! Timothy has not been doing so well on his eating and weight-gain thus far, so they decided to make an exciting change yesterday. I've actually been pumping this whole time, in the hopes that he might still be able to nurse eventually (our freezer is completely packed with stored milk!!) Well, yesterday, I finally felt like I was pumping for a purpose!! They are letting him have 10% breast milk as a part of his diet now - mixed in with his formula, in the hopes that it might help in his weight-gain! So anyway, I am just SO excited that it really may be a possibility for him to have all this milk eventually!!!!! So yesterday was Timothy's first time, in his 10 weeks of life so far, having breast milk! VERY exciting day for me yesterday!! :) This is a picture of our happy smily boy as always in the NICU yesterday... (Sorry it's a little blurry - but I just love that smile!)

Yeah!! Heather I am so excited for you! You are so awesome for pumping this entire time, and now he is able to drink it and I bet he'll start gaining weight now!
I love the turkey! Gobble Gobble!
Wow, you are such a good, dedicated mom. That's great news! I ran into Athena at the Temple Saturday and she said you may get to bring him home soon. That's what we're praying for!
HOORAY!!! We are so happy for you, he is a doll!
That is such good news. It's exciting that all of your work and dedication is paying off. Hopefully he will be able to keep eating, and come home soon! We keep praying for him!
