You are now 16 inches long, and you weigh a whopping 4lbs!!!
Your fifteenth week was another great week! You grew nearly a full pound this past week, and not even your nurses know how to explain it! You are already outgrowing a lot of your clothes. You are looking and feeling healthy, and nearly everyday you seem to be more and more aware of your surroundings.
Your mommy finally was able to hold you without wearing a mask or gloves, which made both of you very happy. She walked into the nursery without a wheelchair for the first time as well, and has been able to spend more and more time with you. And, she finally was discharged from the hospital, which means that we get to spend some time getting things ready for you at home!
In the next week, we're praying that you continue eating more and more from your bottle and continue to grow and stay healthy so that we can take you home soon.
We love you!

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 258 of 258Soo amazing! I think I might even see a double chin? Cute cute and thanks for updating with all that you have going on. What an inspiration you all are!
Love, Dale
She absolutely couldn't be more precious!
Wow. I feel my eyes are looking at a mircale. She doesn't even look like a preemie anymore, she just looks like a baby, but she's a seasoned little fighter already! Go Gwenyth go!!!
I've always meant to ask, and perhaps I missed it, and I'm not sure how you'll be able to answer a question on here, but how come Tricia can't have a baby after a lung transplant?
I'm sorry, I spelled her name wrong. Sorry little baby Gwyneth!!
Look at Her!!!! When you mentioned in a previous post something about you won't believe how much she weighs--I just knew she had to have gained a surprising amount-but WOW a whole pound that is so amazing. Won't be long and the next step in your journey as a family will begin.
Continued Blessings

I absolutely love the first picture of her smiling! It just melted my heart:) It also puts a huge smile on my face to hear of your first day "home"... I can hardly wait to hear about the first day home with Gwyneth! Congratulations to everyone!!
Hi there Trisha, Nate and Gwyneth,
What beautiful moments to treasure! You capture them so well Nate. Your photography has made your shared journey much more personal. Fantastic!
You are all looking soooo good and very happy. Gwyneth is looking so much like a healthy baby who's getting ready to leave the hospital and join her family. God is really working with you!
It's wonderful to hear about you experiencing so many things that I took for granted when I had my 4 kids over the years, even though they had their share of medical problems.
Enjoy the new times together.
I'm praying for this transition to continue to go smoothly and healthily for you all.
Praise God!!!

She is really looking like a proper baby--round and all. :)
Congrats on Tricia's discharge!
Wow, has she ever grown fast from 2 pounds to 4 pounds! Looking so beautiful! Way to go, Gwyneth, looks like you've got everything working just right now. Like your mother, you've set a goal and you're going to work toward it as hard and fast as you can - you want to go home!
God be praised, what a wonderful blessing.
Look how chubby she is getting!! She apparently wants into the free world with her mama.

wow!! she almost looks chubby!! And at this point in her life, SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF!! You go White Rose!! So amazing,
Oh my gosh! I had to call my husband in from the other room to show him how "fat" she is. Those cheeks! Even a double chin! God is good! (I wonder if I left any exclamation points for anyone else)
awwww, she getting a lil belly, so adorable! She will be coming home before you know it!
Look at those cheeks! YAY baby girl!!! You're doing it! Praise God!
Yay for "fat" babies!!! She's beautiful! What a wonderful week :) Still praying!
She is so beautiful...and suddenly growing sooooo fast! Won't be long, now, and you will be able to take another drive away from the hospital, with all THREE of you in the car! :):):)
What an awesome God we have!!
Yes, she does look a little "chubby" in the greatest way!!
My daughter could only say 'Aw, she's so cute!!!!!'.
Blessings,
Karen
WOW! She is looking great! What a gift from God she is!
Look at those cheeks! And chins! She looks fantastic! I can't believe how much she grew in one week.
You know, I was thinking the other day about how God so perfectly worked out the timing for you here-- at least it seems to me that if Gwyneth had gained weight better before, she may have been ready for discharge before Tricia. It seems like the timing is so perfect, now that Tricia is discharged and you have some time to get settled, and hopefully very soon Gwyneth will come home too.
Don't know if any of that makes sense, but let's just say I am amazed at God's providence in your lives, and you are a wonderful testimony to His faithfulness.
We're praying for you.
She looks great! She's getting baby chub! How aweseome! What sweet pictures of her and mommy.
I'm amazed at how big she is getting all of a sudden, she sure is a miracle baby :)
wow--that double chin--how exciting! she's a doll baby! (very soon she'll be 18 mos. and getting into everything as my youngest is right now--ugh!) :) can't wait to see pics of her hitting the beach in her little bathing suit!
Praise the Lord--me and the girls are still praying!
Wow, she is getting sooooo big! :)
Oh Wow!! Has she grown!
She's getting so chubby!
Wow! I am amazed at how much baby Gwyneth has grown, she looks so adorable.
It's certainly been a wonderful week for you all.
Lots of love

I do believe there's some very hard earned baby fat on that gorgeous girl!! It's absolutely wonderful to see these pictures. She's leaving that pug in the dust!!!
WTG Gwyneth!!!
It's amazing how gaining 1/3 of your body weight in a week changes your look!!! It's like I would gain 40 pounds in 1 week, just amazing!!! And I love to see she's getting a little Buddah Belly! So cute!
I pray that she can join you and Tricia at home soon!
What a beautiful little thing she's turning into! She's always been beautiful, don't get me wrong, but with each picture her beauty grows. And she's definately movin' on up! Can't wait for you all to be able to take her home!
What a beautiful little girl you have, I have been following your story for many weeks and I just wanted to let you know how happy and excited I am for all 3 of you!! :)
Can't believe how big she is getting. She will be going home soon in no time..... We are praying for you guys everyday.
