Not much to say today, but I couldn't wait to get these pictures of Becca up so you could see our fancy girl in her favorite purple dress! In fact, I'm not even waiting for John (the picture guru), so there's no telling whether I'll get these up properly, but it's worth a shot. This is the dress that Susan Williams gave Becca at her shower, so that Becca can "be the most stylish girl in the NICU." It's SO stinking cute on her. As my mom said, "Every girl deserves pretty clothes in her size," so thanks, Susan! Enjoy the pictures!
(By the way, they restarted Becca's feedings today. She's again on 1cc of milk every 3 hours. Let's hope and pray that she tolerates it well and can bump up on her feeds quickly so she can grow like a weed like I know she wants to! Also by the way, don't worry about the IV in her head in these pictures. It looks way scarier than it is. It's just like the IV's that are normally in her arms or legs, but since most of those spots have been used, they've moved to her scalp, where babies' veins are really easy to get to. She doesn't seen to notice it any more than the other sites, but I hate to see wires practically coming out of her sweet face. Even though her TPN feedings go in through her PICC line, she still needs IV's for some of her meds and to receive blood when necessary.)
