(Josiah's 6 toes!)... WOW ... SO CUTE!
Hi Guys
I haven't been blogging more than once a day lately just because Josiah is in his 'rest, maintain, and grow' phase. Oh, and I haven't been on the computer as much either just because it seems there are more people using it these days! There hasn't been any poking or prodding to report, just the usual bloodwork and such. The hormone doctors stopped by again and I think they are planning to do some blood tests this week, but they aren't demonstrating any concern. It seems checking his hormone levels is just a precautionary move.
Both Marie and I were able to hold Josiah today for over an hour each. We also - finally! - found a onesie that works for him (Babies R Us/Toys R Us is so cool!). Most are too big, but the bigger problem that was finding one with buttons on the side (easier for the respirator and monitors). Josiah might not be able to wear it for long though because he is such a hot baby - he might get to warm in it!
Hmmmm ... what else? Oh, thanks to Este E. for stopping by again today and offering to take Marie to church! She's really really looking forward to that.
Another round of guess that tune (as usual, it is appropriate to our moment in time):
You never know what temporal days may bring
So laugh, love, live free, and sing
When life is in discord
Praise ye the Lord
If you're curious, go ahead a 'cheat' by Goggling it then listen to their latest @ HofJ.
You know I always think of a thing or two to post when I'm not at the computer, but when I arrive I'm drawing only blanks. It's been really awesome getting to know the other families that are in the NICU! We become an extended family of sorts as we are bonded by joy, worry, proxity, and milestones. I think 'girl time' in the palour helps too ...

Marie and I are going to have another 'date' tonight (get to that round of "Game of Life" we never played yesterday). We bought a puzzle to work on today too.
Grace & Peace.
