4/22/2011 136 Days Old
On the 136th day in the life of the most beautiful girl in the history of the world the morning began peacefully. I got ready for work, and moved Maya into bed with Erin before I left. She slept well last night. When I got home she was on the couch with Grandma Patti. She had a visit from her nurse today. The nurse said that her lungs sounded better. Maya still has a crackle in her lungs but her nurse seemed to think it might have sounded less than before. She did really well today.
Tonight we had a little celebration. Tomorrow is Erin’s birthday. Tonight Grandpa Bob and Grandma Chris came by to see Maya and eat dinner with us. After dinner KC and Michelle, Esther, Micah, and Luke all came by. Right after they got here KC was holding her when she released an epic flurry of diaper disasters. She was pushing so hard that she spit up a bit. After I got her throat clear of the spit up I began to change her diaper. It was the fullest diaper i have ever seen. Front to back and side to side there was no white left. When I was already three wet wipes in she let out a little more. Each time I wiped she let out a little more. I have never seen so much come from so little. It was a craptastrophe. Every one in the house got a good laugh. 7 wipes and two diapers later she was all cleaned up.
We are relaxing from our day now. Grandpa Is holding Maya as she looks around the room. We might have had too much wine and birthday cake. Sleep is sounding really good right now.

My mom, Carolyn Allen, just told me about Maya when they came through town a couple of weeks ago. My mom sent me this link. I am thinking about you and praying for Maya and her family. God bless you all:)
