Monday morning report

Sarah weekend was a little nicer that her last two weekends. Having the cast on held her back, and now that it is off, she needs much less support. She stays happy with much less oxygen, and hopefully soon she will be able to breathe all by herself.

After several days of good weight gains, Sarah lost ten grams last night. Her weight is now 1180 grams, or 2 pounds 9.5 ounces. She's so big!

A little bad news - momma is sick and can't go see baby Sarah! We don't want to risk bringing anything into the NICU to get Sarah, or any of the other littles ones, sick. I'm still feeling fine and will be making my usual trips to see Sarah, and I'll be taking over Mom's evening holding duties. Fine with me! Get well soon, honey, and don't get me sick, too!

Sarah sweet heart we had such a wonderful visit yesterday, you feel like nothing i have ever touched before. So soft and sweet and not so tiny, you are a big girl. Mommy has a little head cold and I am sure you will miss her terribly today. she will be back soon. Daddy is telling everyone how you are so we don't loose track,
I can't wait for all the good news,
love & Kisses,
Great Aunty Ruthy

Sarah, everyone I know in Lombard, IL is amazed at your progress. And now that you've learned about bottle feeding we know you will be advancing by leaps and bounds. Your great grandparents back in Illinois are truly delighted.
