Update : Thursday, 8/4/2011 3PM

Sorry for the lack of updates this morning. My cell phone wasn't cooperating.

Courtney had a fantastic night last night! She was able to get some much needed sleep, and the obvious signs of progress are there. She was allowed some clear fluids today, which is a huge step for her. She was drinking a little bit of apple juice when I last saw her. As long as she does well with that, she gets chicken broth for dinner! She was so excited!

Jackson had a good night as well.

I was lucky this morning. I happened to walk into the nursery at the same time that the doctors were making rounds. His numbers are all coming down as expected - and he is looking phenomenal! They did not have to do a spinal tap (I am very thankful for this in particular!) At this point, he will get to start feeding on formula here real soon!

So far, I have had some incredible birthday news!
