Today was a good day :)
First, Andy and I had our first appointment with our therapist. We loved her and both left there feeling better and recharged and excited about the work we plan on doing with her. It felt really good to talk with someone about our experience and talk with her about how to work to make it more manageable. Nothing will make the experience we are going through easy, but I feel like the work we will be doing with her will help us feel more centered. I am feeling inspired and excited about it.
Second, we had a REALLY great visit with Amirah. She was awake for our visit and she was cuter than ever. She has discovered how to suck on her hand and I think she will figure out how to suck on her fingers or thumb soon. It so cute to see her do this... Here is a photo of her trying to get her hand in her mouth...
Its a great indication of her ability to feed and nipple that she was trying to suck on her hand. It was getting close to her feeding time so its an indication that she is feeling hungry and kind of gets that sucking should help her.Both Andy and I had a chance to hold her today. While Andy held her he played with her and the new toy mirror we got for her. I'm not sure how much she really liked it yet but it was great to see.
Right before it was time for her to go back in her crib and eat she pulled out her NG tube. She seemed pretty proud of her self when she pulled it out. We don't get very many photo's of her without anything on her face so here is one.. It's a little blurry but you can really see her face.
That's really it for right now. I just wanted to share our day with everyone. It is truly amazing how blessed we are.As always, thanks for all the continued love, support and prayers.
Love is always.
