July 5th - Ava is now up to 6lbs. Her Dexamethazone was discontinued today and put on predlyzone. She had a echo on her heart to check up and make sure the steroid use hadn't inflamed her heart. We looked at house in the Castle Pines Subdivision and made an offer. Hope to have an answer on Friday. She took 16mls of her 50 mls.
140 Days - or 4 months 19 days old.
Ava decided to try her own room air trials by removing her cannula. Didn't go as well as she expected.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
July 6th - Our Offer on the house was accepted after some negotiating. Ava was weaned to a flow of 1.5 and is doing well with it. She is also getting 3 feeding per day - 1 per shift from Dad and Mom and one from the nurses.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
July 7th - Ava finally was given 2 of her 2 months shots. Blake and Zane got new bikes from Walmart since they could not find ones that fit them at the Optimist Club. In exchange for getting new bikes they gave their bikes away to their friends Justin and Riley.
Grampa and Grama Heitz arrived this afternoon and visited with Ms. Ava and the rest of us.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
July 8th - Grama and Grampa took us to the Gates of the Mountains. On the return to the Marina the boat Caption and Tour Guide let us get out at Coulter Picnic Area and the boys checked the water out. We headed back early as Zane's foot was sore and Grampa headed on to Helena for his eye apt. on Tues.

July 9th - Ava got to snuggle with Grama Teri (Heitz) although while transfering her to Grama she got a nose full of water and Grama thought we were gonna drowned her. She took almost a full feeding from Nurse Shirley today. Zane had an apt. for his foot the Doctor who was filling in for Doctor Garver gave him a prescription ointment hope that clears up the infection and heals the scratches.(will try to get the picture off my phone.)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
July 10th - Grampa made it back from Helena to pick up Grama and the Boys. They took a tour to White Sulpher Springs and toured the Castle there. Sounds like they had a lot of fun.
Before they left Ava transferred from the high flow cannula to the regular flow cannula. She was very helpful and held the little air mask. I got a picture of her doing it but forgot to save it. She is still on a flow of 1.5
