My birthday adventure

Had a great birthday yesterday!! Cassidy ate great, and even pulled out her NG tube by herself :) She got her iv off her head, and even is wearing a onesie now! So I came back to her room for her 5pm feeding and she was looking like a new baby!

The family came up and we hung out at the big park near the zoo. We had a picnic lunch, opened gifts, and played on the playground for quite a while. The weather was gorgeous! The birds were huge, especially the cormorants, wow. Then we went to the mall and walked around, bought some cute headbands for the girls and adorable matchy-matchy dresses for the girls. Still need to find one that fits Cassidy, as they didn't have any more tiny ones at Children's Place. Also got the most adorable jacket for Cassidy at Janie and Jack, how I LOVE their clearance rack!! And a tiny little pompom hat for Cassidy from Children's Place for 99cents.

After making it back to the NICU for Cassidy's 5pm feeding, we went out to dinner at BJs, mmm pizza and pizookie! So tasty. Oh, and my mom and my grandma both got some snuggle time with Cassidy, as did Kevin and I :) I have pictures to upload, but I won't get to it until after the 11am feed today.

Well, its almost time to feed my baby again. We are almost up to full feeds and nearly weaned off the TPN that was keeping her nourished for all that time she was not eating. Hooray! I am so proud of my tiny little fighter!
