Welcome to the Delaney Rose blog...

Delaney was born January 27, 2010 at 3:09 pm on a snowy Gunnison day. She was 14 weeks premature and weighed 1 pound 15 ounces. We survived 80 days in Grand Junction at St. Mary's NICU, and finally made it home the third week in April. We created this blog while living in GJ so that our friends and family could stay up to date on Delaney's progress. We plan to maintain the site and post when we can, so please enjoy!

Thursday


Another long day for us so far, but we had a good morning with Delaney. Brandon went in first thing to help with morning care and ended up getting to do kangaroo care for close to 45 minutes. It's very special to be able to hold your little girl for the first time, but also a little scary because she is so small and fragile.

We also had a nice treat today because our good friends the Bishop's stopped by to visit. Meredith got to hang out with Jake, and the bunch went to Chuck-E-Cheese for lunch. Meredith had a great time and it also gave us a chance to help with Delaney's late morning care, which included shampooing her little head of hair. Sometimes we're lucky enough to catch the NICU staff doing their daily rounds together. They are great people who are incredibly knowledgeable and also very personable.

Thank you to everyone that has sent us emails, voicemails, and blog comments over the last several days. We really enjoy hearing from you.
