Calista got to meet her Aunt Sarah and Uncle Paul this past weekend as they visited us in Des Moines. We spent a lot of quality time with Calista, including a visit today just before lunch - YIKES! They tried to eat her!
Here's a shot when they weren't so hungry: 
Calista got a bath last night so her hair was lacking some natural scalp oils today... here's a shot of her flyaway "crown hair."
Hello all,
ReplyDeleteI wanted to let you all know that Chris and I welcomed Calista Bella into our family on July 5 at 6:42 a.m. She was 4 pounds, 11 ounces and 18.5 inches long. Calista came earlier than expected – five weeks to be exact. Though she was early and is a bit on the small side, Calista is a very strong and determined chicklet. She is still here in the NICU working very hard to gain weight (don’t we all wish we had that problem?!) but should be coming home very soon. Here’s a shot of her from today – ready and waiting for her next meal.
We appreciate any/all positive thoughts and prayers you can send our way J
