She Did It!!!!


This is what an ex-NICU baby looks like when she takes her entire feed orally. First time! We think she actually took more.

Kevin was in charge of Karsie for a few hours while Michelle was at a baby shower. Karsie was very fussy for a long while. Kevin and Grandma Turner worked very hard to console her. They walked around with her...no success...they changed her diaper...no success...so Kevin stuck his pinky in her mouth and she almost sucked it off! The decision was made to feed her much earlier than her scheduled time as it was the only thing that would calm her down. So she took somewhere between 70-80 mL by mouth. She has been out since then.

Game Day!

Nice Gameday family photo.  Those of you that know about my deal can see the Irish shirt under the jersey, so don't accuse me of going back on my deal.  I'm still rooting for them (not to lose by more than 50).  
One day we'll get her to put up the victory sign.  Her finger mechanics aren't working yet.
After this season I have to get rid of the shirt.  As you all can see, Karsie is not happy about me wearing this.

We took a nice family walk today with Nana and Grandma.  Karsie really enjoys her car seat and stroller...just like every other baby.  Even in her little donut.
