Marleigh was wide awake yesterday from 2:00pm until almost 7:00pm. We were hoping that would lead to her sleeping more during the night. Well, last night we fed Marleigh & put her to bed around 10:00. Marc said he would stay up with her. I told him I was feeling lucky, we should both go to bed. Little girl slept clear til 2:00. I got up & fed her at 2:00 & she slept until 6:00! It was pure heaven!!! She was awake this afternoon from 3:00 until 7:00 & full of smiles. Hopefully tonight will be a repeat performance!
We go tomorrow for her final eye exam back to Wichita. We're pretty sure she's in the clear, but have to check once more. We're going to stop by the NICU. One of our favorite nurses, Eva, framed our favorite book "God Gave Us You". She hung it along with a plaque in honor of Marleigh & Natalie. It was incredibly sweet of Eva. We can't wait to see it hanging. I'm sure all the nurses will be amazed at how much Marleigh has grown in the last 3 weeks.
Yay! I'm so proud of her! I know you must be ectatic that she is starting to sleep thru the night. Fingers crossed it continues :D
ReplyDeleteThat's so awesome. Hopefully you will get a repeat performance of her sleeping through the night. Glad to hear that all is going so well for the Johnson Family. I can't wait to see her. Love ya guys.

Yay! She'll get it and someday you'll look back and forget how tired you are. :) I LOVE that book by the way--I used to try to read it to Reese when she was first born and good old hormones would get me crying every time. ha! What a beautiful tribute to your two beautiful girls. It sounds like Eva has some wings and a halo tucked away. You were so blessed to have her in the NICU! Take care of each other and that sweet little girl!
