mommy blogger. As a mother that has suffered the loss of multiple children while becoming a mother of the bride to our oldest, raising 2 young adults, an 8 year old preemie and a 6 year old tornado, I have a lot to share. I can't guarantee you will agree with everything I say, but I think you may just enjoy it. This is our life, the good, bad and ugly.

| It was the first time the kids saw Marlo outside of her little bed! |
 |
| It was the first time I sent these two off to a Great Adventure on their own. |
 |
| It was the first time for Marlo to be held by her proud big sister! |
 |
| All of this Makes for a very Happy Marlo! |
She is starting to really eat like a champ! Another HUMONGOUS first for Miss Marlo.... She broke 4 pounds! Woot! She is also not such a little shorty anymore, stretching out to a lengthy 17 3/4 inches!
We've raised the roof this week. Literally, we raised her isolette roof, because guess who can regulate her own temperature all by her big self... That's right! Marlo is the rock star of the week!
This morning she was able to take 23cc's from the bottle, and they have raised her feeds to 40cc's.
She still has a lot of work to do to get to fully feeding all of it from a bottle, at every 3 hour feed. She still gets tired and only is awake enough to eat this way about every other time.
Still on the list of to do's before she can come home is outgrowing the Bradys and Desats.
It's a big job, but Marlo can do it!
