Loving the Swing

Monday, December 5, 2011 8:00 am

Morgan has stayed pretty content and quiet over the past few days.  She is staying the course and not much, medically, to report.  Obviously, this is the equivalent of good news.

Her feeds continue to go very well.  Overnight and through Sunday, there were five feeds in a row that Morgan took entirely from the bottle.  Way to go, Morgan!  She is also putting on more weight.  Yesterday afternoon the little monster weighed 4 lbs, 7 oz. 

The ear infection that created some havoc last week has subsided.  The presence of any infection, in Morgan, is worrisome and we are thankful that her body was able to fight it away.

Morgan loves her swing.  It sits on the floor in her room and I think she may have spent more time in the swing than her crib this weekend!  She seems so content as it gently sways her back and forth. 

When she isn't knocked out in her swing, she is being more interactive with us.  She is recognizing our voices, curiously looking into our eyes and, generally, more cognizant of her surroundings.  We are having so much fun watching her develop and progress.

We are so thankful for all you and your continued prayers.  We are also thankful for the wonderful people that are taking such wonderful care of Morgan.
