Home soon!

So, it looks like Miss Waverly will be making her journey home soon! We are so excited to have our girl home in less than a week! She continues to tolerate her feeds well on continuous drip, and is up to full feeds on that (continuous). Over the next couple of days, they will try to start transitioning her to bolus feeds. Bolus basically means a larger amount given at certain intervals throughout the day, in the same timing that you'd give a baby a bottle, only this is through her g-tube. So she'd get a few ounces at a time every three hours or so. We'll see how she does with that, and then continue that transition at home to have her on bolus feeds during the day and then continuous during the night. In the meantime, we have a few things to do to get ready for her to come home. While you wait, here are a few cute pics of her. (Ok, I know they're all basically the same picture, but I couldn't decide which one was best, so I'm including all three!)
