Well, my little princess was kind enough to give me a good morning, happy mother’s day present of 3 this morning: pee, poop, & puke… ahhh the start of a great day!  She’s doing about the same…. It’s a constant struggle to keep enough fluid down her.  We go back to the dr tomorrow for our weekly check, so I will send out an update from that aspect tomorrow night. 

We had our first pass the baby around at a restaurant last night.  Denny took everybody do Benethum’s on account of mother’s day.   She wore her cute little pink velvet dress & played her cuteness card.  Today she went to Grandma & Grandpa Turbin’s house for the first time.  She was Busy!  Birds, dogs, cats, & not to leave out the ponies….  I had to convince her grandmother that she is just too small yet to get up on that horse! 

Her oral feeds may be improving slightly….. I don’t want to jinx us of course, but she has seemed to be a little more interested the past couple of days.  It’s still very little volume, but it seems to be rising in quality a bit.  There’s a catch 22 here with this little peanut- In order to really work on oral feeding, she has to be hungry…. In order for her to be hungry hungry…. Her belly has to empty out completely, which lowers the amount of fluid she takes in within a day.  We should be starting feeding therapy in Traverse City late this week. 

Happy Mom’s Day to all the Moms.  Thanks for all the thoughts of me today!  Caylee mailed me a card… funny she wrote her return address & everything…. Aunt Amber sent me tulips!! And… Caylee & I got lots of messages, texts, and cards.  Thanks to everyone!

Check for another update tomorrow night after her doctor’s appt. 

Couple cute videos.....
