Sunday, Dec 16


Addison was jaundiced and started on the tanning bed. Great pics on that by the way. She will be done with that tomorrow. They increased her feedings again and decreased her oxygen to 25%. We breathe 21% oxygen, so they are going to try and get her off the oxygen again tomorrow. Her blood counts are pretty much normal, which means the infection is going away. She's been lazy with her feeding. She likes the feeling of being in her mother's arms so much that she forgets to suck and falls asleep. Rach trully has a relaxing mother's touch. Her I.V. wasn't working out so well, it was leaking into her hand, so they moved it from her arm to her head. Of course, this makes her look a bit like a unicorn. Again, great pics. Thanks to the folks who have visited us. It makes us feel loved. If you are wondering if you should leave us alone and let us sleep, please decide to come visit. It seems we have forgotten what sleep is and can't seem to get any of it accomplished, so the company is most certainly welcome all hours of the day.


The parent room is awesome. It's like a room in the Ritz Carlton. Well, more like the closet at the Ritz, with a lavy with luke-warm water. But, it's only moments away from our beautiful little daughter, so we are pretty amped about that. Enjoy the pictures if you can see them.

Rach and Wes,
Congratulations on the birth of Baby Allison. She is so beautiful. Already I have been praying for her good health. Please feel God's sweet peace and comfort during this season of her life.
I can't wait to hold and hug her--just like I did her Mom when she was in first grade.
Love to all 3,
