No more Vent

Oakley came off of the Ventilater on Sunday. She has been doing great since. She is up to 45 ml on feeds (via feeding tube). We will start trying to bottle feed tomorrow. Please pray that she does well with this. She loves her paci, I hope that is a sign that she will love the bottle as well.
I was able to dress her for the first time today and yes she was wearing pink!
We are now waiting for a room to open on the B side of the NICU. This is a huge step closer to the H word. The doctors keep telling us not to tell Oakley how well she is doing that she doesn't know and that we don't want to tell her.

Brian went home to be with our three wonderful boys a week and half ago. The nights get pretty lonely but we both know that we are where we need to be. If anything the whole experience of CDH has brought our family, it has brought us closer to GOD. As a whole our families FAITH has grown so much over the last seven months. The day we found out that Oakley had CDH we had no clue what it was and I remember walking out of the doctors office crying and praying at the same time. God is good we don't always understand why he does somethings but he is always good.

Brian and I are greatful to all that have been and continue to pray for our little Oakley. Please continue to pray for Oakley and our family. GOD is listening!!
