Update on Baby Travis

Hi there everyone. First, thank you all for your prayers, calls, texts, etc. Again, we feel so blessed being surrounded by such an amazing group of friends and family. I apologize if I have not called or texted you back, my phone's display screen went out yesterday...so, I have no way of seeing who has called, texted etc. I will hopefully be getting a replacement today :). Travis is doing great...however, they are going to keep him until Sunday at the earliest. We know he is getting stronger and stronger with each day, and pray that he will indeed come home to us on Sunday. He is still being fed through a tube in his nose because his breathing is too fast. He is doing a good job of maintaining his weight...last night he was 5 lbs, 10 oz. The doctors and nurses have been absolutley amazing in the NICU...they allow us to be as hands on as we want. We both have been able to change his diaper, and as he moves to feeding by mouth, they will allow us to feed him and allow me to try breastfeeding. I will keep you updated as the week progresses- so thankful that it is already Wednesday!
