Visiting Powell

Terry and I got to visit with our other little "ELF" a couple of nights ago. The big news, we got to HOLD him! he is like holding a feather! So tiny and yet so perfect. I love looking at his tiny  and minute but perfect fingers. He has the sweetest little face. Of course, he can't be unwrapped so I couldn't see his tiny toes that night. Now he is in an isolette where they hope he can maintain his weight and also he is taking a bottle now for a couple of feedings. He has changed in the times since I saw him last! I couldn't get clear pix b/c I didn't want to use the flash too much. There are so many preemies in there and I don't want the flash to startle them (or their parents!).( I THINK I got a pix of him that will be o.k. for my Christmas card, tho. I've been so busy I really haven't had to try to do a Christmas Card yet! I'm working on it, tho). Powell is doing really well, but in the NICU things go slowly and each time he gains a gram, even, it's time to celebrate. Keep him in your prayers, I so want our angel to go home for Christmas!
