Oh MAN!!! When I read that last update just now, my screen just blurred right out and I let out a hoot!! I'm at the deer lease alone so there's no one to hear me, but the thought of Emmett getting to go home in a week, well that just brought big ol' tears of joy to my eyes!! What an awesome God we serve!! Praise Jesus!

My daughter was in the nicu 108 days.
She is almost 4 now. God is good and the nicu team at memorial Herman are angels sent from heaven. Born 1lb at 28 weeks she is a firecracker. I’m praying that y’all get to take him home soon.

Day 105, 106, and 107 update. Today was a huge milestone achieved by Emmett. That milestone; reach his original due date! Such a long ways our little man has come. Well, we have a plan in place! After discussions with the doctor, we have penciled in a discharge date of next Monday, December 3rd! It still doesn't seem real. Our life for the last 4 months has revolved around that hospital. To say we're excited would be an understatement. Little man is 7lbs 11oz. Can you imagine what he would have weighed if he was left in utero? He continues to take his bottles really well. He's been taken off any restrictions on his feeds. He can basically eat as much and as often as he wants.
Emmett has a busy week coming up to get his check-off list complete for discharge. First up on the list is an echo to confirm there are no changes with his heart. There will be another eye exam to make sure his ROP hasn't progressed. A first will be a hearing test that will be performed this coming week. Hoping for a good report back on this. We feel good about this test, based off off his reactions to our voices. A test will be done to make sure Emmett has no indicators of a UTI. The car seat test will be done next Sunday. For those not familiar, Emmett will have to chill in his car seat for an hour and a half without any de-sats. Sunday night will be spent in a room at the hospital; the three of us spending our first night together as a family. It got a little foggy in here just typing that.
As always, we thank you all for your continued thoughts and prayers for Emmett. Your posts of encouragement, prayers, and love helped us along more than you know.
