Hey Lucie Nation!

So, shortly after we sent out the update last night, we received word that Lucille's blood culture still grew the bacteria. This led the doctors to believe that it was Lucie's PICC that was causing the infection.

Happy Saturday Y'all!

Miss Lucie Pie (as Drea has been calling her lately) is doing well and getting some well deserved rest.  She slept the entire time we were with her today, and her vitals were on point (pic below of our napping girl).  Lucie's coloring looks great and we have not heard anything yet from the last blood culture they sent in (which is also very good).

Hey family,

Now that the week is coming to an end, we are realizing how thankful we are for baby steps… even the tiniest of ones.  From every gram of weight she gains, to every mL they add to her feedings, we celebrate and are thankful.  On that note, Lucie is back on her feeds, a small amount (2mL/hr) to keep her digestion functioning and in order.

Hey gang,

IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII'M baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack. So, our 3-week old is a very active child, we are starting to think that our niece Addi, (for those who know her), is going to have a run for her money... we'll see!  The night nurse we've had for the past three nights affectionately calls Lucille a wild child :).  

Dear Family,

Today felt like one of those 3 steps forward, 2 steps back kind of days.  As we visited Lucie-Lyn tonight we had some sweet moments, however there were some nerve wracking moments as well.
