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 19 - 12/22/11

Day 19...

Both babies are doing well today. They are still getting the same amount of food and both continue to handle their feedings well.

Lilly and Davis both weigh the same as yesterday. Lilly at 2 pounds and 5 ounces and Davis at 2 pounds and 2 ounces.

They went down on Davis's ventilator settings today and are keeping Lilly's the same. The nurse told Mom that they plan on trying CPAPs on both kids within the next week... hopefully they can handle it!

Lilly and Davis got to meet their Aunt Cheryl and Uncle Mike today. They'll be back to see our little ones again on New Year's Eve when they pass back through town.
