We finally got to hold our girl while she was being weighed last night. Our hearts just about burst when we put out our hands and cradled her. She settled right down in our hands, and looked around with those big dark eyes. She knew that she was safe being held for the first time by mommy and daddy. Kie couldn't resist giving her a kiss on the head and I was just in awe of the gigantic feeling in my heart when she was in my hands. (the nurse Dana took this pic for us...) Sophie was doing better, having less "dips" where she doesn't breathe, and less "De-sats" where her oxygen level goes down. Nurse Dana put her on her belly in her big girl bed and snuggled her in tight with a new hat and her soother. She fell asleep and slept soundly for 2 hours. She just loved it.

I want you to know that thoughts and prayers are with you from the west coast too. So glad to have the pictures to see your amazing daughter. She certainly has all the love and support to keep her growing and getting stronger. Auntie Lil in Surrey is also keeping up and sending her love for this tiny addition to the Butler family. We will keep reading and wishing for all the best

Ten fingers, Ten toes
She's laughter and teardrops
So small and brand new
And amazingly angelic

The best of life's treasure
