First Easter

Myla had a very busy first Easter day. She got to get all fancied up in her Easter dress and enjoy brunch and dinner with the extended family. The Easter bunny even came and gave her a pail full of goodies - a new dress, a doll and some fancy-pants tights. She's a pretty tired little girl after all the excitement.

She had a room air oxygen test last week. Her numbers were even better than the one before while she was awake and eating. But the technician didn't want to stick around the extra 10 minutes to wait for her to fall asleep. (VERY frustrating.) He said that he would put in a request for a machine to be dropped off so we could do it ourselves, but we have yet to see it. That was Tuesday. Tomorrow, I'm going to call and see if he did. We'll keep you posted.

Myla has really started to let her personality shine through. She's been very vocal and loves to watch rattles shake in front of her face. She hasn't figured out that you can grab on to it yet, but she's getting the hang of smacking things that dangle down from her chair and swing. She loves to watch the contrast of the sun and shade when it comes through the window and really tracks things with her eyes. She's so much fun to play with and watch her face light up when you make different sounds. She's almost got the hang of pushing up during tummy time too. Won't be long now!
