Gabrielle is doing great. She's eating and sleeping well. She loves to be held. In fact, she frequently expresses her desire to be held. Once snuggled on your chest, she settles immediately. When she's fussing, Jen and I have each independently discovered that she responds well to a mobile...even with her eyes closed. That's right, we're pretty certain that she can hear the mobile's musical tune. In other news, the nurse visited this morning and weighed Gabrielle at 4 lb 1.5 oz. Again, this weight is somewhat inflated since she had just taken almost 2 oz of milk. Previously at the NICU, precise weights were taken nude at about 3hrs after eating, immediately after a diaper change. By the time this blog is being written tonight, however, I think it is safe to say that Gabrielle has crossed the 4 lb mark. She'll be weighed again tomorrow at her first visit to the pediatrician.
