Today Annabel is six weeks old! She had another appointment this morning with a speech/feeding therapist at Our Children's House in Grapevine. They are a great bunch of women who have a very cozy environment for children. We learned that Annabel has great coordination and muscle strength which is why her bottle feedings have been more and more successful. She is up to about 20 cc's per feeding by bottle until she gets pooped so hopefully with therapy she'll be able to handle her entire feeding. We will have 1 appointment per week from now on.
Yesterday was kind of a scary day here in Grapevine, TX. We actually had a tornado touch down a few miles from our house so the sirens were sounding. Carrie, Annabel, Ricky, Sadie and I all took cover in an interior room of the house and waited out the storm. Thankfully, there was no damage to our house other than some debris in the yard. So that means that Annabel, in her 6 weeks, has lived through an earthquake and a tornado. Hopefully no other natural disasters are headed our way :)
Well, that's all the updates I have for now.
Good night,
Jorge

HOO RAY!!!!! She's back to her birth weight! That is fantastic! :) So happy to hear she is making fantastic progress! :) I was worried about y'all in that storm and wondering if you still had power. Glad to hear y'all survived! We had a tornado last night down here in Austin which was about a mile or so away from us! I'd rather be in an earthquake than a tornado! Keep up the great work Annabel and Happy 6 week birthday to you! :) Still sending lots of prayers daily to you! xoxox

Way to go Annabel!!! You are such a strong young lady!! Keep up the great work! You have been through a lot in only 6 weeks, but that just shows how strong you really are! Keep up the good, strong eating! Don't worry - eating tires me out, too, sometimes! :)
