Clothes & a Bottle

Silje's new nurse in the NICU decided it was time we got Silje into some clothes. Poor little girl has been naked except for a diaper and a blanket since she was diagnosed. So the nurse dug through their stash and found a few things that ought to fit her. Most of their stash is in preemie size, so we'll have to have Grandma dig through her clothes and bring down a few things this weekend.



Do you know how hard it is to take a picture of a child in your lap with an iphone? Not easy I assure you! Because she has the IV in her one arm and this outfit was long sleeved, we opted to just leave her arm out.

Silje also had her first go at a bottle this afternoon. She did well. She took probably 8 mL, which is not much, but still really good. She was good at it, she didn't get stressed out and she was interested in it and wanted to take it. But she started to get congested so the speech therapist decided we ought to stop and try again tomorrow.
