Huckleberry Finley....

Here are a few more pictures of our sweet little Huckleberry Finley (thanks for the cute nickname Bec!). We all think she is pretty special. I don't think she has been put down since we have had her.


The kids are so in love with every little thing she does. If she makes any little noise they are right there to tell me that she needs to be fed, or that she needs a diaper change.


She was 7 lbs 1 ounce, and on her first appointment she went down to 6 lbs 13 ounces, now she is back up to 7. She has been jaundice and has had to go in every other day to get her poor little foot pricked. I make Chris do it while I wait in the hall because I am such a baby when I hear her sad little cry. We hope and pray the results come back "A OKAY" so we don't have to go back. If she gets any worse they will put her on the billy blanket, which I hope is not the case. We went through it with Chandler, and I was an emotional wreck.


I took Finley to see her cousin Dylan and the two of them couldn't be cuter. He is doing so well. He hasn't lost any weight since he has been home, he is eating well, and he has the clearest complexion I have ever seen on a baby.

She is adorable! We had to deal with the whole foot prick thing and the billy blanket. YUCK! All I wanted to do was snuggle my little baby and he had this light attached to him! I hope you don't have to go through that again.

Hanna she is so sweet--I love the black and white picture with the purple highlights.

I'm sorry about the jaundice--all of my kids have it pretty bad, too. I love seeing her with Chandler and Gabe, though--you can tell they love their little huckleberry :).

PS- Bonnie, oh no you did not say "can I have a slice?"

Ella had jaundice too. We went in at least 5 times if not more to have her little foot poked. Their poor heels get so sore. Good luck with everything!
