Ad Lib

We talked to the dr. this morning. He said that he talked to the radiologist about Cate's ultrasound. The radiologist said that her current ultrasound looks "normal". So we have it confirmed, she probably does not have cerebral palsy. We have been very nervous about this. We want the best for her, but no matter what we'll love her to pieces. Cate is now doing ad lib feedings. This means she eats every 2-4 hours (or whenever she screams bloody murder). I can't believe there was a time when she had the vent tube in and we couldn't hear her cry. It helps me to appreciate her cry even more. She has been getting better and better at nursing. What a trooper she is! She works so hard. She gained a little weight last night. She's now at 3 lb. 13 oz. Only 3 oz to go till she's in a crib. She could be home very soon. We have so much to do at home to prepare for her. Dad has been working so hard to have the house ready for Cate. I wish she could see everything he is doing for her and how much he adores her. We appreciate all his hard work and how much time he is sacrificing being away from her.

I have been trying to do a better job at this blogging stuff. I find I do a better job if I just do it everyday. Sorry I have been so neglectful. I get a little busy sometimes. :) More tomorrow... I hope...
