Emily's Progress...


Emily is doing awesome! We are so happy that she is progressing and improving each day. Emily is up to 10 ml. of milk every three hours! (that's two teaspoons). She is peeing and pooping ;) and her oxygen levels have been good. Way to go Emily!!!
This is an email I got from Rachel, who is one of our favorite nurses at University of Utah hospital that takes care of Emily.
Rachel writes, "...She(Emily) is looking good! Loves her belly! I can't believe how far she has come in this last week! Growing stronger and stronger everyday..."
Also Rachel sent a few cute pictures of Emily, that she took last night then emailed to me.




Thanks for taking such good care of our baby girl Rachel!

Look at all of that hair! It is so amazing how much bigger she looks in these pictures! It is so funny how babies are either tummy or back babies but no inbetween!

I am SO glad that Emily is doing so well. She's so adorable. I can't believe how much hair she has; it looks like it's getting longer from some of the other pics. What a sweet, sweet baby. I can't wait to meet her and hold her. :) Give her love for me.

Oh I am so glad that Emily is doing so awesome!What a sweet little darling she is! She is so strong! I haven't been able to get on the internet as much lately, and so I just found out about little Ethan. I am so sad for you guys but so amazed at your strength and love that has helped you through this. How great is it that our beliefs instill the knowledge and peace that you WILL be with Ethan again. What a special spirit he was and I am so glad that you were able to have him here on Earth for a few weeks.Next time you are in Preston, we should meet up for lunch. I'm only 20 min away! Take care hon!
