I tried to write an update twice yesterday, but my phone erased both of them…I’m not loving the phone these days.  Steven continues to amaze us every day.  Yesterday they increased his feedings to 16ml each feeding.  He’s taking 2 or 3 of his 8 feedings by bottle.  He has to take all 8 feedings… Continue reading Steven update

Macy is trying to be more like her parents everyday. Today she had her sunglasses on when she went outside. When she came inside she tried to put them on her head like mommy. Her first attempt was hillarious because she had hair going everywhere. My camera was too slow, so we had to recreate…not… Continue reading Mommy's Girl

Doug laid down on the floor and pretended to be sleeping to play with Macy. Usually Macy gets grumpy when he does that, but today she was very sweet and started putting daddy to bed. She got the blanket and put on him. Then she got some books to read him a story. It was… Continue reading Putting Daddy to bed

This is a picture that I took on Monday when Steven was still under the bili lights. It just cracks me up to see him with his sunglasses and pacifier…he’s just chillin and getting his tan! 😉

Mom noticed that I have little sprouts coming up from my tulip and daffodill bulbs. It gives me hope that spring is on it’s way!!!

Steven is one week old today! He’s out from under the bili lights finally so he doesn’t have to wear his sunglasses anymore and we can see his sweet face. I forgot to ask how much he weighs today, but I think he might be back up to his birth weight already. His lumbar puncture… Continue reading One Week Old

She wanted to sit in it yesterday while she watched Madagasgar and had to have the… Continue reading Our princess

Steven is still doing really well.  He has lost a little weight and is down to 3lbs 8 oz, but has handled it well.  His biliruben is down from 12 to 8.2.  He needs to get it between 6 and 7 before they can take him off the phototherapy, but they have gone from 2… Continue reading Update

Doug and I had our best night yet with Steven.  I went to see him this afternoon with Doug’s mom and while we were there I was able to meet his nurse practitioner.  We were talking to her and his nurse (who was great also) and I asked when they thought we would be able… Continue reading Great night!

Dad decided to get up this morning and head back to MS since the weather looked like it would get frosty and he had to get back to work on Monday.  He left about 7, so mom was hanging out after he left when the power went out at 7:30.  Normally that wouldn’t be too… Continue reading Crazy morning…
