Sorry for the late morning update, but with Roger out of town for a few days, you will have to bear with me. Sarah had a good night. She weighed in at 630 grams- that is just over 1 pound 6 ounces. She is eating 10 mL's every 3 hours and all is looking good, with nothing left over in the tummy at the next feeding. Not sure if they have plans to increase her eating today, either way, she is doing fantastic.
I am going to sign Roger and I up for the parenting classes that we were supposed to take before she was born. Since that didn't happen, now is the perfect time to learn about Baby Care, The Amazig Newborn, and Infant CPR. I wonder if we will be the only non-pregnant parents in the class. Oh well, circumstances beyond our control. Regardless, I am looking forward to taking the classes over the next few months.
In case anyone was wondering what the next few weeks will hold for Sarah, it seems her only job is to grow. Around week 35 they will start to introduce her to the bottle- so she has about 4 weeks 'til then. Until then she will be eating through her tummy tube. She will also have an eye exam in the next week or so.

Baby's first eye exam. The Goldstones are so proud.
WOW!!!! I've not read the blog for a week and I can't believe how much has happened. You're doing great, Erica. I'm so happy for you and Roger and all the good news and the joy of holding your precious little baby girl.
Love, Aunt Rachel
Ha! That's funny. You will be the only non-pregnant ones! :)
Yeah for seeing Baby Sarah today!
Oh well, your new little family does not want to do things the "regular" way, right! You're always way ahead of the norm, (about 15 weeks)?... no reason why you should change that now.

I missed checking the blog late yesterday. This morning I was running late, so I checked as soon as I got home from work. WOW!!! The sight of you holding that precious girl against your chest brought tears to my eyes. Tears of joy.
May God Bless you and Roger. Sarah is truly a very lucky and well loved little girl.
Watching her grow is a delight. I check the blog more often than I check my e-mail. I can hardly wait for your updates.
Keep up the good work Sarah.

Erika, you are awesome. Keep up the good work.
We're thinking about you. Love reading the blog (for someone who doesn't like to write you're doing great).
