7/22/2011 225 Days Old

On the 225th day in the life of the most beautiful girl in the history of the world the morning began peacefully. Maya slept well last night. she was only up once. Today we all slept in. We needed it. I was so tired last night that I forgot to do the blog.

Maya is still struggling, but she is doing a little better than two days ago. She slept for most of the morning. For most of the day she does really well. During those times her oxygen level goes up to about 80% which is not good for a healthy baby, but Maya feels OK at there. Once or twice a day she gets really upset and loses her color. We can’t figure out whether her O2 drops causing her to get upset or her being upset drops her O2. After 10 minutes or so of comforting she calms back down and normally sleeps for a while.

This afternoon Maya had a visit from Ali. Ali hasn’t seen Maya in quite a while, and normally when someone hasn’t spent much time with Maya we can sense their tension in holding her. This was not the case with Ali. She was comfortable holding her and Maya was comfortable to fall asleep in her arms. After Ali’s visit Maya had a visit with her nurse. There were no changes in her condition.

Tonight we loaded Maya up in the car to go to Krissie and Travis’s house. Today was there first day in the house, and we were helping them pick paint colors and move a few things. Maya hung out over there until about 9:00 when we loaded her up and came home. She is laying across Erin’s shoulder now. I think we can all agree that sleep will be good tonight.

Because I forgot to blog last night we are going to do a special saturday picture post. Tune in to see our beautiful girl.
