Tessa is such a blessing. Her health and progress is the best gift we could wish for this Christmas. God has given us this gift and we give thanks. She is so huggable and loveable that it is hard to be near her without cradling her in your arms.
Today they increased her feedings to 33ml every 3 hours for a total of 9 ounces per day. She is growing so fast. Her weight today is 3lb 14oz. At this rate, she will be moving out of the isolette and into an open bed very soon. The Prilosec appears to help with the bradycardia and desats. They seem to have decreased today. We glorify an awesome God for providing her needs and giving her strength.
1 Chronicles 16:8
Give thanks to the LORD, call on his name; make known among the nations what he has done.

You are an inspiration to so many and your family has touched the lives and hearts of so many. God is so good and has brought Tessa so far. What an exciting journey still lies ahead! Merry Christmas to you, Nancy and your little angel.

Goodness gracious! Tessa is growing fast! She's going to be a little fashion plate too. We look forward to seeing how adorable she looks in her cute little outfits!
We pray for Tessa's progress every day and pray for strength and support for the entire family.

Tessa is indeed your miracle and a most precious gift. She is also the recipient of God's gift, her parents.

Hi guys
I agree with Patty, Tessa looks like Nancy for sure in that picture.
Enjoy your first X-mas with Little Tessa. I hope you have a wonderful holiday. She'll be growing into Kaityln's clothes before we know it!
