2009 October 11 Elizabeth

Updates on Elizabeth - She is home - out of the NICU! Hooray! Tenille had Grant and Dennis paint the baby's room bright yellow - however it looks a little green here - but it is actually fluorescent yellow. WOW!

Here is Alyssa and Abbey checking out Elizabeth. Be "soft" says Alyssa.

Abby checking out who mama is holding.

Look at those fingers - piano keys here she comes!

What an angel! (Chelsey picked out the cute bed liner and bumper pads - they match Tenille's choice of yellow for the baby's room).

Abby has had enough - check out the static hair.

Dennis holding his granddaughter, Elizabeth - I think that Elizabeth has more hair than him - just kidding!

Blake pre-Halloween

Well, it' about 7:00 pm and Blake and I decided to get the Halloween decorations out. Last Saturday Tracy and I were at my Mom's and she was going through some of our old costumes and wondering if we wanted any of them. Most of them were pretty old, but I did save the vest and the mask. The vest was a perfect size for Blake and he had a blast playing in it with the Dracula cape and mask. Grandpa and him ran around the house scarring each other. Here's the proof!

Day 6 in the Life of Elizabeth at the NICU

Here is an update of a very stressful week at the Wilson Family. Elizabeth has been in the NICU for almost a week. With a little bit of luck she will be able to go home on Saturday, October 10th. She is eating better and her color is good. She is a little bit jaudice, but hopefully not enough to keep her in the hospital. Below is a picture that is outside of the NICU - it is being very protected bcause of the outbreaks of Swine Flu. One person at a time can visit in the NICU and you have to be 18 or older to enter.

This is Elizabeth sleeping soundly.

Here is Elizabeth wide-awake and ready to be fed.

Here is Elizabeth sucking on her thumb - it is the only finger that is exposed. (Tenille used to suck her thumb as a baby too! - Sorry Tenille - I just could resist)

Elizabeth Marie Wilson

All; This is Elizabeth Marie Wilson, Born October 4, 2009 at 11:32 am. weighing in at 6 lbs, 18 1/2 inches long to Tenille and Grant Wilson. She is absolutely adorable. I will write more later about the experience, right now the day has been pretty long.
