The first 3 people...to leave a comment on this blog will receive something made by me.However there are some limitations:1. I make no guarantee that you will like what I make :)2. What I create will be just for you3. It will be done within a year (might take a while)4. You have no clue what it is going to be5. I reserve the right to do something funny/odd/normal/whateverHere the catch: if you choose to do this, you must post this on your blog and be ready to make something for three people too. This will be fun! When you receive the fabulous item I make you, you must post a picture of it on your blog.

This is Our Miracle
Because she was so early, they told us she would be about 3, MAYBE 4 pounds. They told us to prepare for AT LEAST two weeks in the Newborn Intensive Care Unit, and maybe more than that. Maybe a good month or more.
They said she would need oxygen to breath, an incubator to keep her warm, and to be fed with IVs and tubes.
This is Adele Elizabeth, born at nearly 5 lbs, 7 oz. She has good lungs, and didn't need any oxygen given to her at all, she has body fat and can regulate her own temperature, and she is eating like a little piggy. Her APGAR score was 9.9. The doctor who delivered her also calls her our miracle baby. He says she looks better than many full term babies he's seen.
You can see in the pictures, they took some extra precautions, and they will watch her very closely for the next few weeks, and she had to have an IV (in her little head! But her dad saw her get it and he said she just laid there and did not even mind it at all) because her blood sugar WAS a little low (she is eating well and it has gone up to where it should be-perfect) and she needed a little fluids, but she is most likely coming home with me when I discharge. We could not have done better.
