Aulay, Day 21

The little prince is more responsive and alert as he grows stronger.

I'm always anxious to hear the Sunday night reports about the little man's growth. As of yesterday, he is 2 lbs. 7 oz. and just over 14 inches in length. While these are still low numbers, we're so excited about how he is growing. He still has many, many weeks to spend in NICU before his release from the hospital, but we are thankful for the continued good reports on his progress.

Mr. B's health is lingering about the same. He is still sometimes light headed, which makes me not want to leave his side. He is making an appointment today with a cardiologist for a stress test.  I'm hoping that when he is examined by a specialist we'll be able to get some answers.

Today I'm creating a finished baby quilt. I started several quilts during the summer while I was in Santa Fe. The fronts are all pieced together. Although I wanted to finish quilting them before I came back to Houston, my early and unexpected departure from the high desert didn't allow time for that.
