Yumm!
We spent the day at the zoo and Matt thought that it would be fun to stop for an ice cream cone on the way home. It was a great idea, but messy! Elizabeth had her first taste. She loved it and kept going in for more!
Elizabeth was born weighing just 1 pound and 3 ounces. She spent 109 days in the NICU; coming home one week before her due date. She spent a month a a ventilator, then moved toCPAP, and was on oxygen for 5 months. She had a PDA ligation, Grade 1 IVH, ROP laser surgery, multiple blood transfusions, and a sepsis infection.
