Progress

Nathans feeding tube was taken out at 9am this morning.  He still has thrown up 4 or 5 times.  He is not eating well, but did breastfeed once today for 7 minutes!  His IV nutrition is only on for 20 hours per day.  I asked if his 4 hour off time could be during the day.  Then the nurse worked with the doctors to arrange that he is IV free for four hours a day so we are not attached to the pole!  It was such a great feeling.  I can not even describe how good it felt to be able to walk around with him.  I just held him in my arms and spun around because I could.  Thank you God for these victories!
He has so many sweet smiles.  He has started to do little laughs, it is so neat to hear.  He coos alot and is very attentive to people when they talk to him.
Please pray for Nathan to eat so we don't have to put the tube back in.  Thank you so much for praying with us. I wish I could better relay how God has been answering our prayers.  It has been a slow process requiring a lot of patience, but God is faithful.
