Cousin Delcia
We are soo excited to welcome little Delcia Marie to the family. She was born December 27 in the very early hours of the morning. We are just sad the she is so far away in Utah and we have to wait to see her. Delcia is the very first cousin for Ava and Elizabeth - and also our very first niece. I am so excited to be an aunt! Congratulations John and Janessa, we love you!
Back to the real life now though. We had fun with the Grandparents and missed you all. Hope everyone is staying safe and warm back there, watch out for those darn trampolins. And we can't wait for the cousins to get together.
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.
