First things first, results from yesterday’s eye exam showed that Sofia’s Retinopathy has not gotten any worse. Because the stage of ROP is only between 1 and 2 the Doctor feels comfortable with just waiting and continuing to assess to see if she out grows it on her own. If not, she may need laser eye surgery down the road. So, we’ll take this news no problem.
The other big news of the day, yesterday, was that the Daddy had to leave on his first work trip to Alabama. He gets back on Friday and potentially has to go back next week which is a big bummer. Sofie of course misses Daddy but she’s sleeping like a big girl at night for me. (Thank goodness!!!) We got two stretches of 4 hours of sleep last night which is HEAVEN. She stayed awake this morning for a few hours and had a great nap this afternoon. She is also being a great eater and started taking 2 full bottles of 2 oz each once or twice a day. Sofia is being a very good girl for Mommy and I have to admit, her stretch of awake-ness this morning was so fun. She was just content and looking adorable.
Sofie also got to spend yesterday afternoon snuggling with her Cumma B! Cumma is “Godmother” in Italian. She also brought Sofie the most adorable blankie, onesie and pink fluffy tutu! I can just picture her twirling around in her little tutu one day…but we can wait a bit for that scene.
