This morning Matt and I had the pleasure of giving Mettie a sponge bath. I cherished having that time of bathing her and then watching her daddy rub lotion into her soft skin.
The nurses weighed her...5 lbs, 15 oz.
They increased her feeds to 2 ml and hour. That evening my mom brought all the kids up to see her. Because of the ventilator the nurses are cautious of passing into to many hands. I was able to hold her for a while and then when everything seemed settled we begged to have Ellie hold her. It is a beautiful sight to watch the bond between sisters and the deep love Ellie has for Mettie.
