Lilly and Davis' Story

Lilly Mae and Davis Anthony were born on Sunday, December 4th. They were born at 25 weeks and 5 days of gestation.

Lilly was born first at 9:56PM. She weighed 1 pound and 14 ounces and was 13.25 inches long. Her head was 24 cm in circumference (slightly smaller than a baseball).

Davis was born at 10:07PM... 11 minutes after his sister (something she'll never let him forget). He weighed 1 pound and 13 ounces. He was 13 inches long and had the same size head as his sister.

Both were taken to the NICU directly after delivery and are expected to be there until their original due date, March 12th (that's exactly 100 days in the NICU!)

Please keep these little ones in your thoughts and prayers and hopefully we will get to bring them home sooner!

Day 2 - 12/5/11

Today is Lilly and Davis' second day in the NICU. They are both still on ventilators, however we are told they are light settings. Next step will be to move them to CPAP machines. They get their first little bits of food tonight. A whopping 1 ml of milk… Hopefully they handle it well and we can up the food and get our little ones nice and chubby.

Auntie Lori decorated the babies area in the NICU for Christmas today. If they could talk, I'm sure they would say thanks! Lori had to head back to Tampa in the afternoon :( She'll be back in ~2 weeks to visit her little neice and nephew for Christmas.
