Today I got to hold Megan for 4 hours! The nurse was so nice and he made me a chicken salad sandwich and cut it into quarters so I could eat lunch while holding her. He also put some juice in a cup with a straw :) She did so well that entire time and just snoozed with me. About 2 hours into it, he had to change her diaper, take her vitals, etc. She got so mad and was crying. She also lifted her head up off my chest and moved it around to the other side. She is so strong!

He said she was having a great day. Even when she did push her nasal piece out, her numbers were still great. Dr. Farrag also thought she was doing very well and gaining weight! Today she was 2 lbs 11.5 oz - a small gain on yesterday's weight. They haven't really changed any of her medications. She will have the steriods for two more days. Then we'll see how that affects her breathing.

Bob and I went back after dinner so that Bob could visit with her. The nurse had just gotten finished bathing her. She smelled soo good and was all clean :) We got to see her pretty face before the nurse put her nasal piece back on. About 4 nurses were standing around Megan when we came in to see how cute she is :) She also had a HUGE poo! Yay Megan!

Today we got new blinds for her nursery. I also got her froggy tales curtains and light switch to put in her room. It looks awesome!
