We went to clinic today!




GREAT NEWS!!!!!!! Collin’s off TPN and lipids!!!! He will now be getting fluids (sodium chloride & water) twelve hours a day. In his feeds (formula) we will have to add baby vitamins and sodium chloride. He’s also getting 3-4, 1oz bottles a day!!! The best news of all is tonight we will be trying to give him BABY FOOD!!!!! We are going to introduce baby food to him by giving him a few bites of vegetables a day!!! Collin will also be going up on his feeds by 5ml a day!!!!! While we were at the appointment I was going to take a picture of Collin and "his team" (drs) but he wet his outfit and I didn’t pack a cute enough backup outfit...sorry, maybe next time! Keep up those prayers!!! He has come soooo far but he still has a long way to go! Love you all!!!!!

We have been very blessed lately and we’re thankful and continue to ask for prayers! Unfortunately, two nights ago a small town I once thought of as home away from home was hit by a disastrous tornado. The tornado was an F-4, everyone in and around the community was effected by this devastating storm. I’ve spoken to several family members and friends, what I’ve heard is the tornado landed in town and literally caused damage to the school, hospital clinic, and EVERY house. Please take a moment out of your day to say a prayer for all of these people who now have to rebuild there community, homes, and lives. Thank You

Erin, Was your Mom's house damaged?
I thought of that when I watched the weather news the other night. How about where Ryan goes to college? GG
