A few things-May 31, 2014

First an update on little Zoey. She has been moved out of NICU and into a unit called the Wellness Center. She is still on oxygen and has a feeding tube but is not on a ventilator. Today she has jaundice which is typical in 99.9% of all babies born in this altitude. We think she has turned one corner but still has a way to go. Thank you for your prayers. They have helped and are deeply appreciated.

Zoey at 3 days of age. They turned her over so the

milk indigestion would go away. It did. Do not ask me

how they know this. Zoey certainly did not tell them.

We got a day off today and almost feel lost without Hannah. But yesterday was long and exhausting.
Hannah arrived very early in the morning.

There's nothing better that a bowl of Cheerios and Kai-Lan on

television to start the day. Actually we all prefer Bubble Guppies

but it was too early for their show.

 

We had another thunderstorm yesterday. We opened all the shades and talked to Hannah about it. We told her when the rain and thunder and lightning were over we could watch the birds take a bath and eat worms.

We kept our word. Here she is, in the front window,

supported by "Daddy" (she has two and doesn't mind at all).

She's pointing to the birds who did indeed take baths and eat worms.

It was just another treasured time for us.

 

Until Zoey comes home our lives will be centered completely around Hannah and her needs. We are more than willing to help. But that means this travel blog isn't going anywhere. I'm sorry and happy about that at the same time. We'll get back to sightseeing as soon as all is well here.
