So, how do I phrase this, on my last post,I broke my daddy’s computer. While typing away, I had a wee bit of a gas bubble and spit up a bit on his laptop keyboard. Somehow, the keys stopped working and last I heard daddy was yelling (at the computer) and it stopped working all together. Daddy had to take it apart to fix it but all seems to be ok with it now.

Next time I will try not to puke, but it do blame daddy because I am such a cute little one.

Well it has been another long day of moving stuff around. Time for bed, chat later.

It has been a long time since my parents have made a post. We moved so they have been especially busy packing and now unpacking and trying to find all of the stuff the moron (as daddy says) movers packed. I love the new house but it might be too big as Alex runs around yelling looking for his shadow.

Since we are all tired, this about it. Time to nap and wake up soon to eat some more.

Lauren would like to type more, but daddy had to clean the spit-up on the keyboard.

Hello everyone! Just thought I would take a moment and update everyone on what I have  been doing lately. I spend most of my days sleeping – the rest of the time I focus on eating and of course there is the changing of my pants that is a frequent occurrence!

My big brother is a great guy. He doesn’t seem to be the monster that my Daddy told me he was. He can be loud, but whenever I am upset he tells me that it will be ok. He even looks out for me like making sure that Mommy and Daddy don’t forget me. Mommy was putting him  in the car first, and he asked her where I was…(waiting in the house since it was raining at the time).

I also get along with my oldest sibling – Panda Cat. She is very soft and warm. I haven’t seen much of Gizmo Cat, but he seems ok too.

Gotta go get more sleep so I can get bigger (as my big bro says)

Love

So after much complaining, my father has placed my pictures online.  I know my brother can be mean about it, but I understand that my father is a very busy person and it gets hard for him to find time to do things fr us especially when my brother makes him sleep with him at night because he in scared of the dark and McQueen (Lightening)

Oh well, I love daddy and things will get done.

After my non-sleeping first night at home, my parents decided to take me out for a short car ride to go to Grandma CC’s house to pick up my Big Brother Alex. I never got out of the car, because on the ride over I decided that I was still hungry and made my Daddy feed me in the car!

We picked up Alex, I feel asleep, and slept in the sunlight for a long time. Mommy said it was 4 hours! She and Daddy want to know where was that last night? How should I know, I am only 5 days old!

After my nap, I was a hungry, hungry, Lauren, so I ate with Mommy (and Big Brother Alex was watching and was very nice to me) and then I slept some more under the special light blanket. Alex was concerned for me and told me that it would be all right and that I would get better under the lights. He seems nice – which worries me a bit, since I have heard some intesreting stories about him when I was listening inside of Mommy’s belly.

Later in the evening, Alex, Mommy, Daddy, and I put a puzzle togeter and Mommy read books to me and Alex – I wonder what Thomas the Train is and who Lighting McQueen is, but my brother seems to know – maybe he will tell me someday.

Off to sleep, eat, and be changed some more

I’m Home

My parents were able to bust me out of the NICU at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Milwaukee. The nurses were really great to me, but I am tired of not being held whenever I want because I needed to be under all the lights. I am looking forward to meeting this Perfect Princess Panda Cat that I have heard so much about. I have also heard that there is a Gizmo Cat…but that I probably won’t see him much. I guess my Big Brother Alex (aka Little Monster) is spending the night at Grandma CC’s house – so it will just be the five of us tonight!

I was so excited to be home, that I decided I didn’t need to sleep during the night – and neither did my Mommy or Daddy. I did get to meet Gizmo Cat when he decided to cry with me during the nighttime. That was interesting. Somehow I thought that when I left the hospital, that I would also leave the special light blanket there too – not the case. I still have to sleep on it…although I did my best not to!

Well that’s it for me

Slowly Getting Better

So I have good news to share. My bilirubin  levels have gone down (for the first time). I overheard my doctor tell my nurse that the vampires will only get me in the early morning once a day…we had been up to 4 times a day, and I really didn’t care for that too much…nor did my Mommy or Daddy.

In fact, since I am doing so much better, I was moved to a new room. Mommy says that it has a view…but I can’t really tell since I have to wear my special shades under my lights (all four of them).

I am doing much better with my eating – I really like my Mommy’s milk…not so much with the supplement stuff, but I eat it because Daddy (and Mommy) say that the more I eat the better I will get and then I can leave the lights and the hospital and go home and actually meet this “monster” that my parents say live in the house.

I did get held today by lots of people, Mommy and Daddy (of course) but someone named Auntie Shy Shy and Auntie Buki and also Grandma CC – I am sure that my big brother will introduce all of these people to me soon – when I get home.

Gotta go get more sleep under the lights

Another One Up.

So how do I put this, my tanning did not work as expected so my Mom and Dad transfered me to a different hospital that is better able to handle my condition if it gets out of hand.

So what is it that I have? A high Bilirubin count. The main cause of this condition is that I have B+ blood and my Mom has O+. So when I was in her belly, some of my blood leaked into her system and she developed an antibody to fight it off. Of course this antibody went in to me as I get most everything mommy has. The antibodies are breaking down the blood and my liver is not yet ready to remove Bili. Once my liver gets working which takes a couple of days to start up, it should be able to remove most off the bilirubins. (Daddy says I will need my liver for other things – something about Madison and MGD) Until then, it is under the lights as they also help break down these nasty little Bilies.

I will keep you posted on how my adventure continues.

Out doing Alex

So to out do Alex, I decided to tan my first night and not wait for the second night. I will be fine so please dont worry too much about me, my parents are doing enough for everyone.

I will be home to play soon.
