The Fam

Here's a shot of the three of us lounging on the air mattress in the
hospital this morning. A little slice of heaven!

Eating!!!!

Raina is doing some no kidding eating today.  A joyous occasion for sure.  Here's Uncle Jon feeding her some unsanctioned yogurt and applesauce.

Playtime!

This time for real! Raina is up and playing with her toiletry bag.
Encouraging!

Scones to the Rescue

Raina is feeling much better today and is being weaned off her oxygen. Here's a shot of her eating her first bites in weeks! Don't tell the doctors, she's supposed to be starting with Pedialyte.

Smiling!!!!

Raina smiled tonight for the first time since her chemo got into full swing! Awesome!!!

Playing?

Raina digging through a bag of goodies from Lauren.  This is as close to playtime as we've been in two weeks!

On the Mend

Raina is feeling better today after a couple of rough nights in the ICU. Here she is with Penny Penguin catching some Z's.

Guess What

Napping!

Napping, Take 27

Here little V catches some z's on grandma Sue. Rough night, so well deserved. :)

More Napping

Familiar pose for little V. Today with the addition of oxygen to help with her breathing. Hoping to get over her respiratory virus soon without further complication.

Bedtime

Raina on the air mattress waiting for us to brush teeth and etc... Too cute.

Spring Dress

Raina dressed appropriately today for some awesome spring weather, which she unfortunately won't be able to fully enjoy from the hospital room. :(

Here she is with Mom working on another nap!

4 AM Playtime

Raina decided that 4 AM today was as good a time as any to play. Mommy and Daddy, while thrilled to see her content and playing, were hoping for a bit more sleep.

Surprise, Napping!

Severely overexposed shot of Raina napping on Grandma Sue.

In Bed

Raina in bed getting ready for a good snooze.

Bald and Beautiful

Raina, sans hair, between naps on Mom.

Good Night

Raina had a restful night last night ... and no vomiting to report!

Relaxing on Dad this morning.

Firetruck

Long afternoon nap followed by a firetruck ride. Lack of hair makes for a more aerodynamic profile, clearly.

Mo' Tubes

Raina and Dad goofing around. Raina lost half her hair today and gained a feeding tube. Raw deal!

Sippin

Raina getting some water straight from the bottle this morning... her favorite way to drink lately.
