Day 492

Ava has been having a great couple of days. Her nurse today even said that Ava was such a happy baby. She doesn't cry unless she's in a lot of pain. Ava really would have been my easiest baby. I think even with all of her equipment and meds, she is. Oh is Ava sweet. She can smile at you and light up the whole world.

Ava put all of her weight on her legs to stand up yesterday. She was being held and having someone plant her feet but she actually let herself stand. Today I worked on her straddling my leg and putting weight down on both of her feet. For once she was putting weight down and didn't dangle her feet in the air. It also feels like she is getting stronger under her arms so when I lift her up her arms aren't "flappy".

I found out yesterday that Ava's immunoglobins number did increase from 417 to 452. They still aren't happy with that. They want it to be at 500-600. She's not that far away but they are going to keep having her get the IVIG until August and decide what to do in September based on her bloods then. They still think she is lower because she was a preemie.

Thanking God for how wonderful our life has become (not to mention peaceful) and praying for our family to be illness free...
