Mommy and KaiKai had just a regular doctor's appointment on Thursday. He now weighs 6lbs 11ozs. We talked to his doctor about this electronic feeding pump. The clinic moved fast and we had someone out yesterday to set us up with this feeding pump. What a great device! This is going to make things easier for us and for Kai as well. He will get continuous feeding throughout the night (yeah...I don't have to be up all night). During the day we will still use the pump, but it won't be a continuous feed. We will still also continue to try bottle feeding him a few times a day. This feeding pump will make feeding a lot easier for when we are out and about. Before yesterday when we got it, I was trying to figure out how we were going to do feeding when are out and about. Before this feeding pump, we were pouring small amounts of formula into this 60 ml syringe that had to be above Kai so it could have gravity flow it into Kai's tummy. We were just so happy to get this feeding pump. The nice thing about it also, is that it is small and has a little backpack to carry it in. Technology...what great things that are made! It has been a bit overwhelming with everything. Kai has so many "peoples". It is sometimes hard to keep everything straight. I think I need to look into getting a PDA. Otherwise Kai is doing good. It is so fun to just hold and snuggle with him. Gavin and Jace really enjoy holding him as well.
Yesterday morning we got about 2 inches of snow. Gavin and Jace went out and played in the snow. They had a great time! Gavin was disappointed that the snow had melted away. We told him that there will be plenty more snow to come.
Yesterday morning the boys got a new baby cousin. My sister, Tina had a baby girl yesterday. And what a cutie! It will be nice when we all can get together.

Kai is absolutely adorable! It sounds like things are going well I will continue to follow the blog. God Bless you all!
I am so happy to hear that things are going so well. With time all the extra care that Kai needs will become second nature. You are such a wonderful mother. You should be so proud of the family that you and Levi have created! You guys truly are inspiring!
Can't wait to see you guys again,

I love your blog! It is so great to see pics of the family and especially of Kai! Glad to hear things are going well with the feeding pump. I have been thinking of your whole family a lot. I worked with Diane and am so glad it worked out that she could retire at the perfect time to be there for you! You should hear her when she talks about your family...I mean brags! She is such a proud grandma. I think of your family often and continue to pray for you.
