Holding Colten for the first time without any wires attached!

Colten continues to make progress.  He is no longer on oxygen and his IV has been removed.  Yesterday he even had his first bath!

Bath time!

Video of Colten sleeping.  We love all the expressions he makes.

Exactly one week prior to Colten's arrival (down to the hour) we had our maternity photo shoot courtesy of Colten's Aunt Kelly.  Check out the link below to see the amazing pictures she took!

Thank you, Kelly, for capturing this special moment in time!

Colten had his first bottle today!  We are so excited with his progress.

Colten had a great day today.  We were able to hold him for one hour and he's now receiving 10 ml of breast milk every three hours.  We're told that he might even have his IV removed by the end of the week!  We are very thankful for his progress and all of your thoughts and prayers.

Another milestone, he seemed to be hiccuping today!  Check out the video below.
