Merry Christmas everyone! Santa stopped by the NICU yesterday and left Cate some goodies. What a surpise! We were here in the morning yesterday and then went to hang out with family. We stopped by again around 11:30 pm just to check on her. Grandpa Dennis got to hold her for the first time last night. She was so excited that she pooped. :) Merry Christmas Grandpa!Today, Duke, myself, both sets of grandparents and Aunt Carrie were up here most of the day. Carrie and Grandpa Dave got to hold her for their first time. Cate loved it! She had a slow day with nursing yesterday (kind of tired), but has been doing better today. She's now at 3 pounds 8 ounces. 1/2 a pound to go before she can get in the big girl crib. The doc said that may be about a week away. Woo hoo! That will be one step closer to getting her home.
Thanks again to our friends and family for all their kindness and generosity. We are so blessed! It was so good to see family yesterday. We love you! We look forward to this time all year and then it's over before you know it. Next year I hope we will be able to relax and enjoy it more. I told Cate yesterday that I couldn't have asked for a better Christmas gift. She looked up at me and gave me a big smile. Thank God for our little big miracle!
