Cooing

Morgan started "talking" a couple of weeks ago for long periods of time. I love to listen to her sweet, little voice.

Our friends, Lee and Fran, visited us for the weekend. Morgan was telling us stories and watching Fran and I cook dinner while sitting in her bouncy seat on top of the kitchen table.

How do they do that?

A few weeks ago Daniel and I woke up to find Morgan in her crib like this.


We always put her lengthwise in her crib yet we never find her the next morning in the same position we laid her in the night before. I know every child does this but it just amazes me that they can't even roll over yet or even come close to crawling, yet they somehow find ways to maneuver around in their cribs. I still don't know how she managed this.

Thank God!!!!!

Well, Daniel and I could not be happier. Morgan had her blood tested again yesterday and her neutrophil levels are back to normal. They're supposed to be around 1500 for normal levels and hers were just under 1500. At one point she had gone as low as 91! The doctor believes that whatever caused her to have neutropenia is now no longer an issue. I personally believe it had everything to do with the fact that she almost died at birth because she bled out while still in me. As a new mother this whole ordeal has been extremely difficult. We can actually take her places now and have visitors. I'm so relieved!

First Entry

Daniel has been begging me for months to start a blog so I'm finally sitting down to accomplish this task.

Morgan is doing great! She's now 10 weeks old and has started to smile. Daniel and I are elated that she has started to sleep better through the night and has even graduated to her crib. I think it was harder for me to move her to her crib from her bassinet in our room than it was for her to make the move.

Her last blood test results show that her neutrophil levels are increasing so we're just hoping that they continue to do so until they're where they should be. We'll keep you informed on how she's doing.
