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 86 - 2/27/12

Day 86...

We planned on taking some photos while they were awake and active, but we wanted to feed them first. They both passed out instantly after dinner... so, more pictures of the kids asleep.


Lilly gulped down her full bottle in 8 minutes, then went straight to bed!

Check out Davis without his nasal cannulas, he's such a big boy now!

Today was another good day for the kids! Davis has been off his nasal cannulas for over a day and is doing well! hopefully we are done with them for good. Lilly has been doing great with her feedings. She ate all her meals this afternoon and night from a bottle. Hopefully she is ready for the feeding tube to be pulled!

Weigh in time... Davis broke the 6 pound milestone!!! He now weighs 6 pounds and 1 ounce! Lilly gained another ounce and is now 5 pounds and 5 ounces! Woohoo!
