Karma Chameleon

I'm really hoping that the Cath Lab is going to help keep her heart rate from dropping when she pukes so she stops turning blue. At least she's looking a lot less yellow! She is finally starting to look pink.




If I chew on this sock hard enough it should start tasting good, right?

This little girl is rooting around like crazy, but try to feed her and she loses it...literally. Even her binki makes her urpy. The only things she wants to suck on are her fingers. She did take her binki for a few minutes, so I tried feeding her. All I could get her to take was 5 cc's and she promptly upchucked it right back up. Thank goodnes for the NJ tube to put weight on her. Ellie is exactly 4000 grams tonight! Yipee! That's 8 lbs 13 1/2 oz. For those of you paying attention, that is a 3 pound and 1/2 ounce weight gain from her birthweight. Hooray!



I'm so glad Mommy is here to rock me to sleep!
