Maddie is doing fantastic, its 1:40 pm all 3 boys are sleeping, and the Bills are winning and looking quite impressive; life is good. I just got home from the hospital and Annie is on her way up and she will be so happy to see how good are little girl looks. She is just about recovered from her surgery. They took the tube out of her side and as mentioned previously she is off the ventilator and back on the C-PAP (nose breather). The nurse told me today that during rounds (when all the doctors stand around Maddie and discuss her progress and condition) the doctors were talking about starting sprinting her (practicing breathing on her own).
They had noticed some blood in her stool; however after several x-rays of her abdomen it appears to just be some trauma from the surgery and nothing to be overly worried about.
When I was at the hospital this morning, Maddie was wide eyed and looking into my eyes and she has so much life in her eyes. It was so encouraging and refreshing to see that look. Naturally I did not have the camera but the next time I go I will take it up so you cab all see that look as well.
Luke continues to impress us with his ability to sleep; he has made things so much easier on us allowing us to sleep 3-4 hours at a clip each night. He seems to have taken a liking to the Bills or at least football as you can see for yourself in the picture above, he began to do an end zone dance when we scored.
Take care and God Bless we will update when we have more news.

Richard and Annie
