Lily...

So, short story right now, I will post more later...
She has 2 days to take a bottle...if not, she has to go to the hospital and get a tube in her nose. The Dr. at this point just wants to monitor how much she is eating, so I need to give her 36 oz. of formula per day, plus all the solid food she will eat (at least 3 times a day). We are supposed to call in a couple days, and let him know how it's going. We are also supposed to do a sweat chloride test next week for Cystic Fibrosis. Please pray and pray and pray that she will take a bottle (we have had NO luck on bottles up to this point).

Sending prayers from Lubbock. Please keep updating the blog - Lily is on my mind constantly!

Sometimes us mommies have to get creative..... have you thought about having ZANE drink (or pretend to drink) from a bottle, in front of Lily? Even at Lauren's young age, she is so engrossed in everything that Preston is doing, and always wants whatever he has. I wonder if Lily saw Big Brother loving a bottle, she might take to it easier? And, it might make Zane feel like a big helper, too. Or, have you tried a two handled sippy cup? Maybe a fun cup of somesort would be more appealing to her. Just some random ideas. Anyhow, she'll continue to be in my prayers! Hang in there!
