Baby Registry Link
We did a baby registry list of a few things we would like for baby Nico if you are wanting to get us something for him. Click on the above title to go to the babies r us website and our list.
your prayers are making a difference in our lives. I feel true joy in my heart! We are being given many reasons to be thankful in the face of some uncertainty. God is good to us (all the time, God is good).

Improving

He was in lvl3 and now he is in his new lvl2 room(4 being the worst). Things seem to be moving in the right direction and TCH is keeping us up to date nicely. Grandma took her up there tonight to visit. Holly is taking Kristina up there tomorrow to see how he is doing in the new room.

Well, this is the first time I've seen all of Q's notes on the page together. It looks like I have good records as I haven't started his actual journal yet and my mind is so full of stuff I can't rememeber anything much right now. My husband is excellent beyond words!
Today was my most exciting day so far, since the day Nico was born. I got to do some "Mommy" things, like rubbing stinky poo off his hiney while he cried because he was so mad! That was our first time hearing him cry. I was so excited I couldn't feel bad for him at all. I've been waiting for that sound since he came out in the delivery room.

Arriving home yesterday, Maya seems like such a grown-up tiny person as she greeted us at the door and shortly afterward told me I needed to go to my bed and rest. She is in much need of hugs and kisses from her mommy, as we have both missed each other. I think she will be so excited when she gets to have her little brother come home! For now we aren't really showing her photos, so she won't be scared of the tubes. I hope to talk to the child life person at the hospital tomorrow about how we can talk to her about everything that is going on.

Thank you to everyone for your prayers, food, errand running, gifts, flowers and messages of concern and encouragement. We are so fortunate to have so much support!

Visiting (added video)


We got to take his tempature(picture below) and change a diaper(video above). He pooped on Kristina so that's a winner. They are still going over the MRI results process so we do not have info now. They are happy with his progress and has been started on breast milk. There was no evidence of seizures in the EEG test.
