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 47 - 1/19/12

Day 47...


Lilly and Davis's cribs... no more incubators!



Dad trying to wake Davis up...

Dad messing with Lilly... just trying to wake her up too.

Lilly asking dad, "Why can't you just let us sleep???"


The kids are doing great today. They turned Lilly's CPAP down to a lower bi-phasic setting, with hopes to take her back to normal CPAP tomorrow. They finally found a crib for Lilly, so she got to move into the same style bed as her brother. Davis is still hanging out on his CPAP and doing well with it.

Lindsey has a cold, so she couldn't hold the kiddos today. That meant that dad got to hold both... and he loved it!

Weigh in... Davis gained 2 ounces today!!! He is now 3 pounds and 4 ounces! Lilly lost an ounce, so she is at 2 pounds and 13 ounces.
