Brookie's update

Life has been crazy busy lately! With Steve working alot, the girls and I are busy busy! Mom with 5 girls. How crazy is that :) Any way, Brooke has done well. She made it 3 & 1/2 weeks with out a transfusion. Monday night she didn't want to eat anymore. Tuesday my mom babysat, and bless her heart, she fed her 1 ounce every hour to get her to eat. Grandma's have the patience. So yesterday we drew blood and she was at 8.2, so she had blood and chemo on Wednesday. She is so much more alert and smiling when her numbers are up. She is still a peanut at 9# 13 oz, so I just savor the cuddling while I can . They are both starting to "talk" and babble. It's so fun! Next lab draw is Monday unless she needs one sooner but we hope not. The older girls are off school for a few days so it's time to relax and have no schedule for a few days.
