2 lbs. and still breathing good!

Well, Kanyon has had a big day. He reached the 2 lb. mark - yeah! Actually, 2 lb. and .02 oz. to be exact. Big boy! And he is STILL off the ventilator! It's been over 38 hours now on the CPAP - praise God! This is a huge accomplishment. They also took out his IV today, so he'll now be taking just Jaymie's milk, plus a few vitamins through his feeding tube. Thanks for your continued prayers - he's doing great!

Praise God, this is such great news. Kanyon is such a fighter. I just thought I would tell you how impressed I am with your family and your faith in God. Our family keeps the three of you in our prayers and we greatly enjoy reading your blog (thanks to Rachel for the updates)!
