ZuZu is here!


Sorry to keep everyone waiting! ZuZu was born at 12:39 AM Friday, March 6. The whole thing took less than 6 hours, and only 22 minutes of pushing! Much better than the 3 hours of pushing with Moses!
Her stats: 8 pounds, 7 ounces; 19.5 inches long-- she's a little butterball! And she looks just like her big brother.We've had some issues getting her blood sugar in the normal range-- it was "critically low" yesterday, and she was tube-fed for 24 hours.

We are exhausted, but she is such a trooper! She has been poked so many times it breaks my heart. We have another blood sugar screening tonight between 10:00 and 10:30-- please pray for a hightened level! Otherwise, she will be here indefinitely until she can sustain it on her own!

We'll post more pics when life is a litte more "normal"!
