Gracie Update


This is a picture of Gracie from today - she still loves to be bundled up.
This morning I was able to spend a couple of hours at the hospital with Gracie, Kathryn & Kevin. It was my first time seeing her since about a week after she was born. She looks pretty much the same - I think she weighs only a few ounces more now, although her face has changed quite a bit. I was amazed at how alert she was & as you can see she has the biggest blue eyes! They were looking at everything & as at I sat talking to her she looked at me so intently. It makes you wonder what she's thinking. She stayed awake almost the whole time I was there.

She had nursed just before I had gotten there & after 2 and a half hours she had still kept her food down. (yeah!) I'm hoping she continued that progress after I left. She sure is a fighter! (and a cute fighter at that!!) She sure had us all worried there for a while. But it is nice how the family banned together to pray for this sweet sweet baby girl! Thanks to everyone for the prayers. I know it meant a lot to Kevin & Kathryn.... Hopefully she will get to go home tomorrow.
