For a preemie baby, Kymani is making a ton of progress every day. She's still in the NICU, but she's getting closer to going home each day she is in there.

Each day when we walk into her room, she is in some sort of a cute pose. She moves around a lot, no matter how we or the nurses position her. This is a good thing, though. It means she is just being a newborn baby and doing what they do.

Kymani is becoming a little less fragile daily and we are becoming more experienced with preemie care. We recently were taught how to take her out of her bed without assistance from the medical team. We have been doing this for days now. So, now we are able to take her out and put her back in on our own without asking. This is great because now it's on our time. We've been holding her a ton. We already were but now that we are in charge of that, it's of course more often.

Here are some more photos of us holding Kymani (more info and updates below the images)

There weren't many changes for Kymani today because she is doing so well. She has her bed lowered to the lowest temperature possible until she weighs enough to be transferred to the open crib. She is technically ready but she's too small. She needs to weigh at least 1800 grams before moving, which is close to 4 pounds. So, send positive thoughts that she will do that fast. She was at almost 1600 grams today.

Perhaps one of the biggest pieces of news today is that we are now in a boarding room that is very close to Kymani's NICU room, so we can see her whenever we want. We plan to stay until she gets discharged. We currently have enough to stay about a week, but are working on earning enough to stay longer, if necessary. In the photo to the left, this is Kymani when I got her all snug and we said goodnight last night.

To close, we will leave you with this cute photo of Nova. To see what the heck she was doing, check out her blog (The Nova Skye Story) in a little bit for more photos and a couple videos.

We definitely haven't forgotten about our Nova Bear. In fact, she's getting just a little bit of extra attention so that she knows we still love her too and everything isn't about just Kymani.

Can you tell I've been down this road before with the other two sets? Our 6 kids are 19 and 18, 13 and 12, and 1 and 13 days.

Keep an eye on the blog for more of Kymani's journeys!

Kymani's Travels

Lyn Lomasi gave birth to little Kymani Lyrique on June 8, 2017! She was born prematurely at just 30 weeks gestation. But miraculously, she only stayed in the NICU for about a month and has been either on track or ahead for her age, thus far.

Kymani is an East African name, which is traditionally male and means "adventurous traveler".
Since when do we do anything traditional or follow gender-specific "norms"?

In this family, she will definitely live that traveler legacy, proving such with her premature entrance, even though that is NOT what we had in mind when we gave her that name prior to birth.

Lyrique is an alternative spelling of Lyric and she is proving to be very musical, always dancing. Join us as we recount the adventures leading up to her birth, as well as her life adventures afterward.
