Our Exciting Weekend













Friday was a busy day for Miss Bella she moved rooms and was moved off the high power jet-ventilator. She is now on a lower ventilator.. On Saturday I got to hold my baby Bella for the first time.. It was amazing. She is so light and tiny. Her little toe cat danced on my tummy the whole time.. Such a blessing.. Now we get to hold her everyday for at least 45 minute to an hour. Right now we are not holding her more than that just to keep from over stimulate her.. Daddy also began playing her music while I am holding her and she seems to enjoy the music..









She hit 2lbs 13 oz (sunday).. And Yes Misty M2 she is offically a member of the Bow Head Club. We arrived on Sunday to see her with big bow on her head that her night nurse had made for her. We think she is the cutiest little baby girl in the NICU but of course we are the mommy and daddy..

what a joy and a blessing to see little Bella getting bigger and stronger each day! Before you know it, she'll be home on her own little bed... waking you up in the middle of the night! I bet you can hardly wait... those little things we take for granted... you will cherish every moment!

Her bow is nearly as big as she is! She looks perfectly content and right where she belongs.

Isn't holding that precious girl the best thing in the world? Here is my advice to you...hold Bella all you can, because once you get home, you know your Mom isn't gonna put her down! And I don't blame her!

Congrats!
