Gracie, Gracie, Gracie

Well, here she is. Gracie, our new edition is all set up in Oakland Children's Hospital in the neonatal ICU. She has a great group of doctors and nurses caring for her. Her first day today and she did very well. Her vitals look good and her breathing is improving. She is being assisted with a ventilator, but they have reduced the amount of assistance as she gets stronger at breathing. I spent a few hours with her today and while she slept most of the time, daddy took some time to tell her all about the family that is waiting at home for her. Her big sisters Olivia and Sophia I know are anxious to meet her. Olivia told me today that "She likes Gracie" and "I am a big sister to Sophia and Gracie". Olivia really likes saying "Gracie". She knows that Mommy and Gracie are spending some time with the doctors and will come home when they are all better. Mommy is resting at ValleyCare Hospital in Pleasanton. She is in pain from the "C" she had today and is trying to get some rest. Man, are my girls strong. I can not make it through an information session with the doctors without getting light headed and turning pale. I have no idea how Kim gets through regular deliveres, c-sections, etc. etc. Good thing the men do not have to do the pregnancy thing. I would never make it!

Ok so here she is...
