Growing Baby Girl

So Brian and I have been out of town for a few days while he coached his tournament team.  We knew our little girl was in good hands, but it was very hard leaving town.  Luckily, Briley Kate took that time to do some serious growing!!  She now weighs in at 2 pounds 7 ounces.  It probably doesn't sound like much, but it warms my heart to see her "chubby" little cheeks!  Every ounce at this point is crucial.  She weighed 2 pounds 2 ounces at birth, and lost down to 1 pound 14 ounces...so go girl...keep that tummy full!  We're up to 20cc's every two hours on  her feedings, and she has even shown some interest in sucking.  The pacifier looks HUGE compared to her little mouth, but i'm proud of her.  One of the requirements of going home is learning how to suck on a bottle.  It's funny the little things you take for granted when you see a healthy full term baby...so many obstacles ahead, but so many that we've already overcome!  Praise the Lord for His mighty hand in all of this.  Will post 3 week pictures soon!
