Doing great! 7-21-08

Hey All!

Maddie is doing awesome. She's so good.

We did however forget how much work a newborn is...but we quickly remembered. Thank God we have the opportunity to remember this time.

Here are some new pictures. I'll try to do better about at least posting pictures.

Update 7-10-08

Yeah! Due date has arrived!

Maddie is doing great! We went to the doctor Tuesday. Her eyes are greatly improved, almost completely healed up. Her neonatologist sees no signs of developmental delay and is very pleased. She is up to 5lbs 3oz 17.5in long! She eats like you wouldn't believe so it's no wonder she is growing so fast. We could not be happier with how things are going. She is an amazing little person.

I've attached some recent pictures.

Home Again 7-2-08

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to let you all know that we are now home again. We actually came home on the 27th, but seeing as the stay was short lived last time I did not update right away. JIC.

Well, so far so good. Maddie is doing awesome. She has gained weight and is now 4lbs 14oz 16.5 in long! She has had no episodes and her monitor has not been alarming. We visited her pediatrician the other day and everything checks out. We also went to the eye doctor and her eyes are improving. Yeah!

Thank you for all your prayers and support, please keep praying that things continue to go well. She is so susceptible to infection and will be for the next year or so. Even a common cold could send us back to Kosair.

Thank you and have a happy 4th of July!
