Today one of our favorite nurses took Meredith out for a play date with her grandkids, which allowed us to hang out for a little while. It was a nice break from our busy daily schedule. Meredith and her new friends seem to be hitting it off well, so there are likely more playdates in our future. Although we had originally hoped to get Meredith into a preschool, we ultimately reached the conclusion that it was too risky to have her in school where she is likely to be exposed to lots of bugs. We have to minimize the potential for illness; even if it's just a minor cold it would keep us out of the NICU and away from our baby girl. We've become insane clean freaks, what can we say.

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!

It is so exciting to hear all the positive "vibes" in your postings! It's great to hear that she is gaining weight and the fact that you are not saying much about A's and B's appears to be a good sign! We think of you often... many times each day... and are always hoping that things are looking up consistenly and sooner than later! I'm encouraged! Big hugs to all of you and a soft back rub and pat on the bottom for Delaney!
