Hazel is Growing!

We had a weight check this morning and she's up 4 ounces... which is pretty amazing!

She still has a lot to go but the fact that she's finally gaining just makes me want to do a happy dance.

She also has two cute little bottom teeth that she loves to show off. We didn't weigh her last week because we were in California for Spring Break. (I have some pictures to post of the vacay.)

I'd just like to thank the many many people who are still praying for her and those that are helping us get formula. You people are amazing! We'll never be able to express our gratitude. You are saving her life. Literally.

They Say...

that "the best bridge between despair and hope is a good night's sleep".




How about a full day of sleep?



The past 24 hours I spent either in bed or in the bathroom throwing up



It wasn't pretty



But this morning I woke up covered in sweat and feeling much better



about Hazel



and well, and everything



Thank you once again for your words, thoughts, prayers, karma, and chi



I'm feeling hopeful



(extra credit goes to Jarom who still gave me a kiss this morning even though my hair was a greasy rats nest and my breath was... well, bad. He stayed home from his church meetings last night to put the kids to bed and clean the house. He's pretty much the coolest.)
