Closer to the "H" Word

Well, today one of the doctors used the "H" word when talking to Natalie about Kylee.  The doctor told Natalie to get the house ready for a baby.  I did not get to go see Kylee today unfortunately; however, Natalie told me that everyone says she is doing really well at this time.  She is continuing to gain weight and is now up to 4 pounds 10.5 ounces.  This is almost a full pound of gain since she was born.  Thursday also marked three weeks since her birth.

From what Natalie has told me, they may be starting to figure Kylee out somewhat when it comes to her feeding issues.  Kylee was getting a shot of Starbucks (caffine) every morning to help stimulate her to aid in breathing and they are working to wean her off of her daily coffee break to see what she'll do on her own.  We were also told that the earliest she may be able to come home is the end of next week.  These next few days will be crucial to see when we get to bring Kylee home!
