Her Daddy finally got to hold her. She took a bottle for the first time yesterday. Her Mama insisted that they try. Rachel drank 1/3 of what she was suppose to get in a feeding, so it won't take her long to learn to drink it all.

We're now free of all air tubes and the picc line. Only have the basic monitors hooked up to her.
