Day 57

Kanyon is still doing well. He is now eating 30 cc's per feeding..that is one ounce! His breathing is going well also. We are thankful for these good days. We get to hold him pretty much every time we are in there, so that is wonderful! Speaking of...I have some long overdue pictures...

Nurse Kathy took this picture while she was weighing him...guess he doesn't like that too much! I wish you could hear his squeeky little cry. We waited a long time to hear that...sweet sound. Funny to think how thankful we were to hear him cry the first time.

Sweet baby in his daddy's arms

This is the first time Kory got to hold him..it was a few weeks ago. There was not a dry eye there. We were all so happy to finally see this!

Look real close at this one, Kanyon is looking right at his daddy!

Back to sleep!

What beautiful pictures the last couple of days. He is absolutely gorgeous!!! I am so thankful that things are going well and to see that Kanyon is growing so fast. Those fat little cheeks were the best. I continue to pray for you often. May God continue to bless you and your family.

For me, there is nothing like a good, happy cry at 10:00 in the morning. I'm so excited to see the pictures and hear once again that Kanyon is doing well. Prayer works and we do lots of it!
