Insert Jeporady Theme here

Do do do do do do do..... this may get boring. I feel like a kid that's waiting for a trip to Disneyland that may or may not happen. And if it happens, when? Then I feel guilty because I see the new little baby across the room from us that is a preemie maybe 2 or 3 pounds and on a ventilator. His parents can't hold him and I sit and rock my baby. We have been so blessed and there have been so many miracles with our baby that I have no right to complain about anything.

Ellie lost a little weight tonight. I think it was because she was awake almost all day. That girl does NOT want to miss out on anything by sleeping. She didn't keep her 3:00 feeding down for me today. I don't know if it was because she was wired or what. She just wanted to play. I did some strenghthening exercises with her that the physical therapist suggested and got her to nap a little while I rocked her. But I can already tell this little girl is going to be just like her brothers... perpetual energy child.

I don't get as many good pictures as Chad does, because I don't take 75 pictures each day. But here are my attempts.







Hmm. I see a tall man with grey hair and a goatee in my future....
