What a glorious day today was!!! We finally got to hold our little girl for the first time. I can still feel her in my arms. And by the time we left the hospital, they had turned off the oxygen cannula and the tube down her throat for the stomach secretions was removed as well. Today Kenzie is officially off any form of life support.
I also was able to feed her for the first time too! She took 2/3 of an ounce of milk and gave us a good burp...she gets that from her daddy!!! If she continues to feed well, they will be able to remove her IV as well.
It was a good day for Kailey, too, as this was the first day that she got to see her. Big sister is dying to hold her and to have her come home...as we all are. We haven't talked to the doctors about that yet, but I feel that we may be getting closer and closer to that day.
What wonderful news!!! We're so glad Kenzie is improving by leaps and bounds!
