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!

Last week Delaney had a fever (related to teeth coming in?), and this week she got a series of immunizations and a flu shot, which didn't exactly make her feel good. We decided that it would be beneficial for all of us if Delaney went and saw a pediatrician, so Jennifer made a special trip to Montrose. A lot of the discussion had already been covered with our local folks, but it doesn't hurt to get another set of eyes on our micro-preemie. She's weighing in around 12 lbs (depending on which scale she's on) and continues to experiment with solid foods. It's a learning process, but we've been exposing her to different things such as avocado, carrots, oatmeal, rice puffs, bread, and a little plain pasta. We hope to fatten her up once she gets the hang of it.
This is an exciting week for us because Meredith turns five on Thursday. Unfortunately she seems to have a touch of a cold and we've had her quarantined for most of today. Hopefully a day of rest will get her feeling better so she can enjoy her special week.
