Day 218 and 219

Lemon Juice..... really?

So this is kinda a lame picture, but it the closest thing I could find to represent size.

So the NICU temporarily moved to our floor while they get remodeled. :) Yesterday we had some medications come up for them. So we all fought over who gets to bring the meds to the NICU. I won.

The nurses there were so nice. They told me to walk around and meet the babies. One of the nurses called me over. She wanted to show me something that you don't get to see every day.

A tiny baby girl who was born yesterday at only 24 weeks. She was 1 pound 1 ounce and maybe as long as this lemon juice bottle.... maybe. Looking at the picture she may have even been a bit smaller. She was so precious.

I love the NICU. They even had a little girl there similar to Conner (who has been home now for five days after spending 229 days in the NICU! yay!), who has just a nasty hodge podge of digestive issues and surgeries.

My heart and prayers go out to all of the babies in the NICU and their families. They are all such little miracles.

Happy Fat Tuesday everyone. I wish I was in high school French class so I could be stuffing my face on all sorts of yummy treats. But instead I'm stuck at home with a lunch I'm so not looking forward to. Stay tuned for tomorrow's reveal of my goals for Lent! :)
