No More Oxygen

Quick update on Eliza is that we took her off the oxygen on Thursday. We put it back on her at night, and that has been going very well. She has her next Dr appointment tomorrow, and hopefully at that point we will be able to remove the oxygen entirely! She's been doing very well--the reflux problems seem to be decreasing, and she doesn't have problems nearly as frequently with overall breathing consistency. She's getting stronger!

Last night we had her on her tummy, and she was lifting her head up and wiggling around so that her body was moving to new places on her blanket. The kids got excited thinking she would be crawling soon, so we had to temper that enthusiasm, but it is so encouraging to see her taking these strides! Had everything gone according to schedule, she would be about two weeks old right now. Instead, she celebrated her three month mark on Sunday!
