Woo-hoo. Annie pooped. She had been holding off for a while and we were very carefully NOT thinking about the possibility that she was developing any GI problems. Fortunately, the big elephant in the room has been asked to leave. Poop happened. Unfortunately, Deborah got stuck with the diaper change. Sorry!
Annie continues to test our patience and have some dips in her breathing and heart rate so last night she was placed on oxygen. Obviously, these bumps along the road are alarming to Steve and I but the NICU staff is wonderful at acquainting us with the idiosyncracies of premature babies (apparently they don't follow directions well).
The NICU now seems to be aware of the fact that Elly has a bizarre sense of humor and seem to be coping nicely. God bless 'em.

Hooray for the little things! :-) Love, Barb
...everybody poops sometimes... (to be sung to the tune of Everybody Hurts by REM) So glad she is acting more and more like a typical baby!
Happy pooping Annie! So fun to see the day to day, makes me feel 'in the know' about details. Annie, the "other daugherty family" sends prayers and support every day. We love you all...
