More Suprises from Miss Sarah

We arrived today at the hospital to find out that Sarah had been moved to the more stable wing of the neo-natal ICU overnight. Apparently there were quite a few preemies and twins born last night, so Sarah is now in an open room that just has lots of little curtains that can seperate the babies. Sarah was a little cold this morning, though, so the nurse decided to put her back in the incubator for a few more days. The good new, though, is that Sarah is now up to 4 pounds, 6 ounces, and has been breathing so well that they decided to remove the nasal tube for now. Sarah's first practice feeding with Joella went well today too, so we will see how well the feedings have progressed by the end of the week. We are still able to hold Sarah outside of the incubator and we have started cradling her more and more instead of just doing skin-to-skin contact.
