7 Months Old...

Gracelyn turned 7 months old this week. She is finally coming alive. We have a whole different baby. I think that she is finally beginning to feel well. She laughs for no reason. She squeals. She is just SO happy. She still doesn't feel like sleep is something she or I need. I am hoping that once we lose the oxygen (Monday hopefully!) she will begin to sleep. I think it keeps her up a lot. She is starting to sit up, but gets excited and falls over. As far as her health, I don't feel like things could be better considering what is wrong with her and what she has been through. She is one tough little girl! She is an example of strength to all who are around her. We love having her around and couldn't imagine life without her.

At 7 months old Gracelyn:
-Says "eye"...Hi and "ama"...Mama
-She waves and says Hi
-She gives great kisses on the cheek
-Has beautiful pink lips!

-Can still be put to sleep by swaddling her and putting a binki in her mouth
-LOVES to be outside
-Is still wearing her 0-3 month clothes (starting to move to 3-6 months on shirts)
-Loves to be sung to by her brother
-Is still a mama's girl, but starting to let others hold her...but only for a minute
-Loves bananas
-Doesn't think sleep is necessary
-Sats in the high 80's
-Is on .25 liters of Oxygen
-Is on .83ml Propranolol 3 times a day
-Is on .6ml Lasix
