Last night was another wonderful night for our little angel.  She only had one episode around nine, and then she fell asleep and stayed asleep until five this morning.  I had to thank our nurse this morning for teaching our daughter how to sleep through the whole night. 

Today was an eventful day for both Blair and Harli.  Harli had four episodes throughout the day which is a little more than she has been having.  This could just have a little to do with the fact that she is having to work a little harder for each breath.  The nurse said that with two of her episodes she was able to recover on her own, but the other two required a little bit of stimulation. 

Today Blair was going to get to do something that we have been waiting on for a long time.  She was going to get the chance to do non-nutritive breast feeding.  This is when Blair goes and pumps and when it is time for Harli's normal feeding time they put Harli with Blair to see if she tries to breast feed.  I guess things went better than any of the doctors or nurses thought it would go.  So hopefully with this news it wont be long before she is actually able to start breast feeding.

Our precious angel weighed in today at 1760 grams or 3lbs 14ozs.  Harli has now gained two pounds since she was born.  It is amazing how everyday she continues to impress Blair and I with her strength, we serve an amazing God.  She is possibly just a few ounces away from being put into a crib, wow what a step and change that will be for everyone.
