Happy Hurricane Faye Day!

We are still totally out of touch with the weather, we just know that its supposed to be rainy and windy. We got up extra early this morning to go see Bella, not knowing what the afternoon would bring. I got to change her diaper and took her temperature. Kristen was able to breast feed her.  It is amazing to see a little baby lay on her moms chest and then just wiggle her way to her mom's boob.  It is freaking cool!  Would show you a video but YouTube would have issues.  We got to hold her and cuddle with her as she slept. She still has had no episodes with the phenylbarbital which is good. They did have to put an IV in her head for her antiobiotics, b/c the one in her hand was leaking. It should be out today since this is her last round of antiobiotics. We headed back to RMH around 10:30am to get some rest and do laundry. Depending on the weather we might go back later. If it's too nasty out we won't. We know she is in good hands and in a safe building. So that is our hospital post!

Onto hurricanes and houses! We are meeting a lot of people here at RMH who have really tiny babies that are very sick. Please keep them in your prayers. We know what it is like to be in their shoes and not knowing what's going to happen. A lot of them are from far away and don't have family or friends close by for support so it's pretty tough today. We heard a story today about a couple who just had a 1lb 2oz baby, and it brought back memories of Gabi. So please pray for them!

It was a little concerning when the shuttle took us back to the house today and there were sandbags all in front of the RMH! I know they are being cautious but still! All the nurses had flashlights, but I keep telling myself that they have generators and Bella will be fine.

Well that's about it for now, we will post again once we hear from her doctors.  Figure I get some rest and surf the net while Kristen sleeps and pumps the Boob Juice!
