2/10/2011 65 Days Old

February 10th, 2011

On the 65th day in the life of the most beautiful girl in the history of the world the morning began peacefully. I had parent teacher conferences today and did not have to head over to school until 11:00. I got to sleep in and spend a little extra time with Maya this morning. She had a better night. She was able to calm down and get to sleep around 11:00 and stayed asleep until her 5:30 feeding. The extra sleep was appreciated.

Today while I was at work Michelle came by to see Maya. Erin was able to to get maya to go to sleep in her bouncy seat for the first time today. The O.T. had helped Erin set up the bouncy seat so that Maya’s toys hang down just above her hands. When she moves her hands bells ring. For the first time Maya is able to play with her toys and entertain herself while stimulating brain development. She can control her head better now. For short times she can hold up her head and look around.

This evening Grandma Kathy came by to spend some time with Maya. We watched the Big Bang Theory and Community. Maya still thinks Ahbed is hilarious. Now Maya is curled up on Erin’s lap and is drifting in and out of sleep. I have the day off tomorrow and am looking forward to some extra Maya time.
