Hi to everyone! We just got back from the Dr so I thought I'd update everyone, and we've been taking a million pictures so I thought I'd put a few up. Abby is doing wonderful! Last week she was 5.8lbs, and this week she is 6lbs!! Yay Abby! Since she has been gaining so well, even after we turned her O2 down, now we will only turn it on while she eats and it will be off all the other times. Hopefully she'll continue to eat well and gaining weight. Next week we go in for another weight check and if she is still gaining we will hopefully be able to get rid of the oxygen. I'm excited to actually to be able to see her cheeks for once! In two weeks the Dr will download the monitor and make sure everything is still going well, as well as her weight, and then hopefully at that point we can stop the meds. She'll have to be on the monitor for a week or two after that while the medicine works it's way out of her system, so she'll probably be on the monitor for another month. It's wonderful to finally see an end in sight!!! Here a few pictures of our little peanut....

Abby loves her pacie, it's hard to tell but she's actually leaning on it, I didn't want to move it because I didn't want to wake her, she looked so peaceful...
Abby is in her swing, which she loves, and Roxy couldn't figure out what was going on...
Abby's just hanging out in her bobby on my lap being cute...


This is my favorite, she's wrapped so tight when she sleeps and when we open the blanket she's all snuggled, its sooo cute!

Julie and Matt - Just wanted you to know I printed up two of the pictures - the one with binky next to her face and the one where she is in her bobby on your lap - and sent them to Mom-Mom so she can show them off to her friends. I also printed copies for me to show off as well! Thanks again so much for posting them online so we can see how beautiful our Abby is. Love, Aunt Carol
