The Lord answered our prayers today in a huge way. Adleigh's surgery went very well and they were able to reattach her intestines. No ostomy bag was needed! Thank you Jesus! This was definitely an answer to prayer because most babies have to have the bag and a second surgery. Apparently, so much stuff was backed up that her small intestine had stretched to the size of her large intestine. It is a miracle that it didn't rupture. It is awesome to see how much all of the nurses have grown to love Adleigh because they were all rooting for her and super excited when they found out things went so well. In fact, I heard one say to another as they walked away ..." See, good things do happen in here."
Awesome news! God is so good!

I am so glad to hear that things are progressing so well for your family and the twins. My husband and I came to the backstage tour at elevation a few weeks ago and we were looking at blogs from the church, we came across yours and your wife's and we have been praying for your family ever since. My niece was in the nicu for over 3 months and it can be exhausting, but they are well taken care of. We are also expecting on New Years day and it's a girl! Well I just wanted to let you know that even people you don't know are praying for you and as you know God will amaze you everyday! - Melissa (Powell, TN)
