Bat those baby blues!

Myla had a check in with the eye doctor today. The news was mostly good, I think. Turns out that the blood vessels in her eyes are stuck. The got really close to all the way and they just stopped. She said it wasn't uncommon in babies with prolonged oxygen. But, she doesn't foresee any problems with Myla's vision and the blood vessels will get there, but it will probably be after the oxygen is turned off. So, we go back in two months now instead of two weeks for a regular vision check and they will look, but it won't be as much torture as it has been for her.

And you know what else she did today!? Myla was doing her tummy time on her hippo mat and ta da! She rolled over on to her back. Just like that. And just smiled and cooed! Of course, she didn't think it was so neat when I put her back on her tummy to do it again - kind of like, hey, I just got where I wanted to be! She's really been a happy baby today and very talkative. Of course, she did sleep through the night last night. That's right! 7 1/2 hours of uninterrupted sleep for mom - I mean baby. ;o) She's been eating a lot too, so I think she must be growing. Which is exactly what we want her to do.
