Update for Tuesday, May 2

Hi Everyone! It's been a week now since Miss Katherine has come home. We're all doing very well, and it's been so much fun getting to know our baby. Katie had her last eye exam last week, and the doctor says that now her eyes are fully mature and she's no longer at risk for Retinopathy of Prematurity. Paul had been present at the first two eye exams, so he warned me about the gory procedure, but when the doctor asked ME if I was ready, that's when I knew I had to brace myself. Thankfully, the doctor was good and he finished the eye exam quickly. Katie and I are glad that her eyes are mature and we don't have to worry anymore about ROP.

There's not too much more to tell you. We're heading up to Lopez Island for a little vacation this weekend. Before we go, here's a picture of Katie from today. She's got her WubbaNub - a plush dog attached to a pacifier that gives her something to grab on to that helps her keep the pacifier in her mouth.
