Mike and I have been married for 9 years and it's hard to believe how fast the time has flown by...each day we are more in love than the day before and despite all the challenges, stress, difficulties, etc, each day has brought us closer together as a couple and as parents.
Due to not being able to have Addison home, we decided to have a dinner date close to the house at the famous Fox Valley Restaurant so that we could dash over to the NICU and see Addison TOGETHER (we've only been able to do that while I was in the hospital so this was a special treat)! Dinner was yummy but we have to admit the restaurant is a little strange...=)
We arrived at the NICU just in time to see Addi have her vital signs taken, including being weighed and I got to change a diaper for the first time (Mike's gotten to do this a few times due to his timing but this was a first for me). We had a onsie that Noah used when he was in the NICU and it was almost a little too fitted! We talked to the NP and she said that Addison is looking really good. We are up to 30 cc's per feeding and they are alternating NG tube and bottle as tolerated. Sometimes when babies are so tiny like Addison, it's hard for them to coordinating breathing and eating at the same time! So Addison is getting bigger and working on her eating/breathing in order to get out and come home to us!!!
