Here are some pics from the past few days with Chloe.
Chloe is doing great and just moved from the Level III NICU (intensive care) to the Level II (step-down) Unit. She is in an "open crib" without the incubator. She is done with feeding tubes and is eating fairly well. Those are 2 big hurdles that she had to overcome before she gets to go home (regulating body temperature and eating/gaining weight).
Sara will be discharged tomorrow and we are excited about getting to spend the night together in our house. No words yet on when we can expect Chloe to go home, but the move out of the NICU today was HUGE!
For all of you who have called and emailed, we truly appreciate all the words of encouragement and you reaching out to us. Don't take it personally if you do not get an immediate response.
Thanks for checking up on us.

She's so beautiful. Is it too early to say she looks just like her momma? I'm so happy all is going well and will continue to pray. Love you all.
Congratulations on your new baby! Such a bittersweet time for you and your family.
I am just now finding your blog & I want to extend our condolences for your family.
I also wanted to tell you that your little daughter Chloe resembles my daughter a bit when she was born. I thought that was pretty amazing.
God Bless!
