Like I said before, it's all up to her and she will be the one to decide when she's ready to come home. She's getting very close though. She's been taking an average of about 5 out of 8 whole bottle feedings a day. The other 3 are about half from the bottle and half down the feeding tube. The problem is that she gets worn out easily and wants to go to sleep before the bottle is empty, so she sort of gives up. But all the nurses and doctors think she will most likely be coming home by this next weekend.
As for her weight, she has been gaining very consistently and is up to 4 lbs, 7 oz. These past few days, she's been gaining about 2 ounces a day. You can definitely see a difference in the look of her face now.....
I can't believe I'm about to post this next picture, but it makes me laugh, so here we go.
Yes folks, this is my husband -- dear God help us all (especially Roxie)........

I've been just able to access Roxies's blog today. Have read up on everything and I'm SO happy to hear things are going well. I know/understand how frustrating is must be to wait...wanting that baby of yours home, but it's just a matter of DAYS now. ((hug)) The nursery is just beautiful! I gasped when I saw it.
Take care of you...I've subscribed to the blog so I can get updates on you guys.
