Hangin' In

That's us...hangin' inside, staying out of the cold.  We sit around and cuddle, watch tv, and nurse.  We nap and try to return emails.  We sing songs and change poopy diapers.  I watch her sleep.  We do sponge baths and I change her outfits when she poops through them.  

She is such a good baby.  She is mellow and strong.  I'm still in total awe of her.

Allie had a good report at the pediatrician on Tuesday.  She gained back the weight she lost in the hospital.  We are meeting with a pediatric urologist this coming Tuesday.  I hear that her kidney issues should not require more than antibiotics, and that things "should resolve themselves" in the next few months.  Fingers crossed.

In the meantime, I'm just enjoying her and the many, many quiet moments where I just thank God that she is here with me.

Oh yay I am so happy for you. They are just so amazing!!!

You can always try taking a bath or shower with her too, Bliss loved them when new, still does but "I" LOVED them even more I think.

Enjoy!!
