Ellie Update

Ellie is doing great. She is a good sleeper and eater and is only fussy when she wants something. She is gaining weight and getting bigger everyday. She has had a few rough nights, but we were expecting that. She can sleep through anything when she wants to. She gets the hiccups several times a day and sneezes a few times a day also...so funny. Emma (the dog) is getting to know her sister and I think has licked her hair several times...Ellie has had some funny cowlicks on the side of her head. We are loving our little girl and I will post more pictures soon...we have plenty!

Emma decided that it was a little too cold/wet out when we had our recent snow storm.

Wednesday

A week ago right now I was at school. A few hours later I would check my blood pressure and be sent to the hospital and not go back to work. It has been a pretty long week...just sitting here. I thought I would give you a glimpse of what I see most of my day. To my right is Emma, usually asleep, and in front of me is the lap top and TV. I go back and forth between lying down and sitting up and every once in a while I will get up and do something to make me feel productive...take a shower, put clothes on, make a phone call, let Emma outside...you know...really important things.


Here is a picture of me taken earlier this month. It isn't the greatest, but it gives you an idea of what I look like. I don't think I have gotten a lot bigger since this picture was taken, in fact some people say I look smaller, but I think I am just starting to drop.
