6 pounds 7 ounces!!!















Danielle is officially over 6 pounds now, yay!!! She is doing so good and being such a good girl. She got her stitches out of her incision on Friday, 3 days before they were scheduled to come out. We are VERY happy and surprised with how well the incision looks, you can't even tell there was anything there. The incision is only just a hairline thick, they did a wonderful job stitching it up. I have a pic here you can see how well it looks and her hair is already starting to grow back in that spot!

She is on the lowest setting for the high flow nasal canula. So the next step is what she was on before surgery. Hopefully they take her settings down in the next day or so. She did get a blood transfusion on Friday. Her numbers have been borderline for awhile now and just being post op they decided to give her a boost, which is completely fine and not a bad thing at all.

Mommy and daddy had a little getaway in Chicago this weekend. We missed our babies so much but it was nice to have a little getaway. We found either one or the other of us calling to get updates frequently, as as we hoped both kiddos did just fine. It was very nice today though to go to the hospital right when we got home and give Danielle her first bath in the tub since surgery. She loved it just as she always loved it before. It was great to let her soak in the tub, be able to wash her hair again and have her fingers and toes dangle in the water. We try to make it so relaxing for her and just the way she wakes up and relaxes we know she loves it!!

So, no new changes for our baby girl. She is just getting bigger, eating all of her food and getting stronger day to day. We love her so much and are so blessed to have her as our baby girl! Here are some pics from the past few times we have seen her. And the first picture is the 'bean bag hand' called the Zaky, Danielle loves it!~

That's about how much I weighed when I was born. It's great watching her grow. I remember when Dylan was born you celebrated your due date as a milestone...just wondering if you've pasted your due date with Danielle yet?
