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 22 - 12/25/11

Day 22... Merry Christmas!!!

Awww, she's embarrassed now...



Lilly holding daddy's hand (well, thumb...). It also looks like Lilly has the bulls thing down (look at her right hand)... daddy's proud, Go Bulls!




Mommy, daddy and Auntie Lori went to the hospital to spend Christmas morning with our little ones. We also got to dress them up in their Christmas clothes for their 1st Christmas pictures! Thanks Aunt Lori for getting the special preemie Christmas outfits!



Lilly and Davis are both doing well. Lilly gained 20 grams, but is still at 2 pounds and 6 ounces. Davis gained 10 grams and is still at 2 pounds and 3 ounces.

They didn't make any changes to their feedings or ventilator settings.
