Sunday...

Here is the update as of lunch on Sunday.
Lyla's breathing is improving, but still not where they would like for it to be.
She did get a feeding tube placed this morning to get her started on some milk.
They have stopped the antibiotics because they now know it is not an infection, just fluid on her lungs, so the IV should come out shortly too.
Her chest x-ray looked better this morning, so she should start regulating the breathing more and more each day.
They gave us a time frame of 3-5 more days in the NICU before she will be able to come home. But, that is not to say, it could be sooner if she starts breathing and eating normally.
When we go in to see an hold her she is just so sweet and talks to us or is sleeping.
We will be going back down this afternoon to visit with her and to get a new update.
Here are some pictures we got of her this morning... All cuddly with the feeding tube in place


In the mornings while I am getting out of bed and showered, Brad goes down to see Lyla and have some Daddy time with her. He can just sit and hold her all by himself. :) Sweet Daddy.



Her home for the next few days...Looks comfy!!

Please continue the prayers for Miss Lyla!
