busy, busy

Wednesday morning Adelina and I were up going through her morning routine of being changed and weighed when my poor husband started throwing up.  Illness is a real danger to Addy so we had already decided that I would go stay with my brother and his wife if anyone got sick.  So, I quickly packed up and left.   Wednesday night Adelina had a hard time settling down but I was finally able to l lay her down around midnight.  I dutifully got up through the night and added milk to her feeding bag.  When I woke in the morning she was all wet and I was feeling really bad that she had thrown up and I hadn't noticed.  I went to change her clothes and only then realized that we had once again fed the bed.  Sometime during the night Adelina had pulled her feeding tube out and in the dark I hadn't noticed.  She still gained 10 grams and luckily I was able to return home yesterday.  These pictures were taken one right after the other :)

Thursday morning our two-year-old went in for ear tubes, she had to be there at 5:45 am.  My sweet mom woke up bright and early and now our Lily can hear again... yay!  We notice that she still doesn't listen to where a person is, she just announces where she thinks they might be and runs there. Also, she woke up from her nap and after I asked if she wanted some popcorn, she repeated the word "popcorn" over and over again practicing the pronunciation.  Grandma asked her to say "pop" to get her to say it correctly and she just kept saying, "I don't want popcorn."

After returning home we had visitors from a birth to three development place.  It's hard to know if we should really add one more thing to our plates.  One of the ladies that came works on development while the other is a nurse and would like to work more on feeding.  There is a cost involved and so far Adelina is right on track other than eating by mouth.  She smiled at us much of the time they were here :)
