You are still a little bit bigger than 12 inches long, and you gained some more weight this week and you are now just a little bit under 2lbs!
Your ninth week was your best week yet! You went nearly the entire week without any kind of breathing machine and without any extra oxygen! By the end of the week though, you got a little tired, so they put you back on the vent. But, you're doing great!
You also had your fourth negative MRSA swab, and they finally moved you out of contact isolation, which means that your daddy and grandparents get to touch you without any gloves on again! Your mommy came down nearly every day, and she was able to hold you several times. And, for the very first time, both of your grandmothers were able to hold you!
In the next week, we're praying that you'll be breathing so well that you'll work your ways towards breathing again without any help. We're also praying that you'll make it to 2 lbs. and even more! And, we're praying that you stay infection free and don't have to go back into contact isolation.
We love you!

Uh oh, Meeka had better watch out Gweynth is gaining on her. What a little beauty she is. I have watched your BLOG for some time and you and your family are such an inspiration to me. I thank God for yours and Tricia's courage and your strong devotion. I pray for you daily. Hang in there and always remember that God never said it would be an easy journey only that it would be worth it.
it won't be long and she will far surpass the pug!! she is just too cute!
Wow... she is longer than her pug.. great stuff Gwyneth. Here's to praying she will be back off the vent again soon. It is wonderful she was able to be held by her grandparents and her mom.

I see the likeness in the generations before her, but Gwyneth is very beautiful and feminine. You and the grandpas are not beautiful and feminine. God has blessed us all with this precious angel!
She is getting so big and prettier by the day!
Continued prayers..

Wonderful News!
WOW!! What a HUGE difference than the past weeks! She looks like she has grown in the past week! How adorable!!
Praying for both of your girls...
Peace and Hugs,
Becca
Can't believe she's 9 weeks already! She really does look like she's getting bigger, and her skin is looking less preemie-ish. So cute. :)
She is so beautiful and precious and she is getting so strong! My sis had quadruplets which were about 12 weeks premature, so I am familiar with all the ups and downs of these precious preemies. Praying for strength for you, Tricia, and Gwyneth!
She is getting so LONG!!! Either that or she is just enjoting stretching more! She just looks so alert and birght - wonderful!
May God continue to bless and keep you all!

I'm so glad that Gwyneth is doing better and thank God that there isn't an infection. Such a strong & beautiful little girl. And she is growing so well, she's bigger than her doggy now!

She is really cute! We love little Gwyneth.
That Pug is getting smaller! I was just wondering if the pug has a name? Another possible cf husband contest!?!
Praying that everyone keeps oing well and getting big (Tricia and Gwenyth) :)
WOW! She's getting so big - She's actually looking a little "PUGGY"(pudgey)!! You can see her start to fill out! That's so awesome!! We are still praying!! Much love - Bamagirl!!!
She's adorable :D Bet she's gonna be a pretty lady in the future ;)
More beautiful than ever! Great job on another wonderful week, Gwyneth!!
Hugs and love!
I'm amazed at how completely adorable Gwyneth looks even with all that machinery hanging around her. It looks like they are doing a great job of making her comfie with her legs propped up on the soft blanket. I'm thinking that you have a marketing opportunity to produce Gwyneth dolls that look just like her--everyone would want to buy one!
Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above
With wisdom pow'r and love
our God is an awesome God
one of my favorite songs!! Glad Gwyneth is filling out so nicely and infection free!! She is gonna out grow that pug pretty quickly!!
Love and prayers,

Praise God. I need good news and something good to lift and encourage me today. I can't believe what a difference that 9 weeks has made. She is so lively and getting prettier daily. This has been an awesome experience for me. Paul and I have prayed for more children. God hasn't allowed us to have more. It does my heart good to see that someone else that really wanted a child gets to have a real miracle baby. God is so good. I love that the grandma's got to hold her too. This life is so amazing, no matter what.
Hugs to some great parents!
Christy
I am amazed at how wide awake she is now!!Also the pug is geting smaller.
Though she still looks so very tiny, she looks sooo much bigger. Much more alert too!
What a sweetie!
SHe is as beautiful and courageous as her mother :)
Pauline
Look at those Legs!! :)Praying she is off the vent soon.
Praying for Tricia today too. She must get restless/frustrated sometimes, so I'll pray for an extra special blessing for her today.
The little bugar is growin'!
Go Gwyneth!
I really like the picture of her from the last post...nice expression on her face :-)

It's funny that if a full term baby were born at 2 pounds it'd be considered to be extremely tiny, but Gwyneth at 2 pounds is starting to look big!
She's growing so much! I'm so glad she's out of contact isolation, and will continue to pray.
Wow! She's just getting more gorgeous every week! Praise the Lord for His goodness!
She is looking so good! The growth is amazing. Gwyneth Rose is wonderfully made. But we did already know that. =)
I am so glad she is doing better. She is getting so big!! Prayers for all of your family
I'm so happy to hear that Gwyneth is infection free and just a little tired. What an answer to prayer. She's really starting to grow!
WOW! She is bigger than her pug now! How wonderful! and so glad she is infection free....
continueing to pray here in Raleigh

Wow! She's got so big! There is such a dramatic difference in just a few weeks :o) She is starting to look like a real "baby" now (if that makes sense) and gets more and more gorgeous by the day. She looks so well too. Congratulations Tricia and Nate, you have a truly adorable little one there and must be very proud! xxx
aww what a beautiful daughter and now she is bigger than the pug...that's awesome!!
God Bless
I love seeing her all comfortable looking! Her legs hanging off the sides, reaching out to touch her doggie it looks like! I am so excited for your family, seeing your daughter grow is so exciting!
I love how the last few photos with her arms spread out, it looks like she wants to stay, stop taking photos & give me a hug!!!

We serve a big God!
She's HUGE. She's all sprawled out. And she is bigger than the pup finally.
(I know she's not huge in the literal sense... just in the awesome hand of God sense!)
What a miracle.
she sure does look relaxed in those pictures. she is so blessed to have so much love come her way by family and friends. praying daily for you all. Kari and fam:)
Gwyneth is so adorable!! Just so sweet! Rejoicing with you at the good news that she's infection free and doing so well... she is thriving!
"May the Lord be gracious to you and bless you and make His face to shine upon you, that His way may be known on earth, His saving powers among the nations. Let the peoples praise You, O God. Let all the peoples praise You!" Psalm 67:1-3
she is so cute all stretched out beside her pug.
much love to you all
Wow, her weight gain is really obvious. Good for her! Praying that she'll be breathing on her own again soon.
She's getting so big! What an amazing, beautiful miracle to behold.
she looks huge when she is all stretched out!!! glad she is infection free and that you all are able to have skin to skin contact with her again.
She's soooooooooo big. Funny saying that about an almost 2 pound baby. She looks so long. I am so glad that the grandmother's got to hold Gwyneth. What a joyous moment that must have been. Have a blessed day.
Yeah! It's good to see pictures where Gwyneth is bigger than the Pug!
God Bless,
Michelle in MO
