5 pounds, hooray!

Maria has finally reached five pounds! She's growing fast now. Mama "nested" at the Childrens Home on Sunday night and was up a lot with her little "doll". Aunt Dee had some practice giving Maria her bottle on Sunday afternoon and it was a pure delight. Aunt Julie visited and rocked Maria on Monday afternoon. She's very popular and has a lot of visitors. She brings us all so much joy. Nana and Pappap visited today and Nana fed Maria her bottle. I don't think Nana can get enough of her new little grandaughter. I've never seen Nana so happy than when she's visiting Maria. Maria is still struggling to work on her breathing skills, please keep her in your prayers.
