Eyes, Ears, & Squash!

Yesterday, we went back to Wichita. Marleigh had her eyes & ears checked. Her ear test was at 11:00. We were done by 11:01. Seriously. The entire test took a total of 30 seconds. Her ears are perfect! We went to the NICU & saw some of Marleigh's old doctors nurses. Then we went to Baby's R Us. They were having a HUGE sale on clothes. Although Marleigh has more clothes than I do, I couldn't resists a few outfits. I even picked up her Christmas outfit, which is ADORABLE! Can't wait to see her in it. We then met Eva for lunch. It is always good to see her. Eva is thinking about going back to school to be a Nurse Practitioner. Go for it, Eva! You'd be great!!! At 3:15 we went to get Marleigh's eyes checked. Just like we thought, they were perfect, too. We are thrilled both appointments went so well.

Tonight, Marleigh tried squash for the first time. I was telling Marc to be patient. I was worried that since it was new, she would throw a fit & spit out most of it. Marleigh just had to prove me wrong. She didn't spit out any of it. She ate about an ounce, opening up wide for every bite! I am so proud of her. So far, it doesn't seem to bother her tummy, but we'll see how the night goes. I'm hoping her little tummy will handle it just fine. The last few nights Marleigh has gotten up 2-4 times instead of her normal once. Maybe some solid foods will cure that!

  2. Hi Marleigh!
    It was so good to see you. Thanks to Mom & Dad for bringing you up to the NICU. Thanks for the memento. I will think of you always when I look at it. Thanks for the beautiful smiles you gave me while you were there. Aunt Eva sure enjoyed seeing you too. We all did.
