Good News

No, I haven't received results on Elena's purple-crayon-poo yet but thank you all so much for your comments. You know you've made some dear friends when they are as interested in your kid's poo-poo as you are, lol! And just for the record, it never occured to me to take photos so rest assured that you'll never see pictures of poo-poo on my blog!

The good news is regarding Elena's right kidney...you may recall that in utero they identified it as being dilated & when she had an ultrasound at 1 month old it was still 3mm dilated. Well, Elena had an ultrasound again & no more dilation!! Yeah!!

We also learned Elena is 2 feet 8 inches tall now & 25 lbs! She's off the percentile chart for height & in the 98th percentile for weight...I guess that's what you get when you combine my 5'8" genes with Elena's donor's 6'4" genes! The Dr kept saying, "She's a tall girl!!"

I hope everyone is having a great Easter...Elena went on her 1st Easter Egg Hunt yesterday...what a blast! I have to say that yesterday was one of my all time favourite days since Elena was born! Just an all around perfect day!

  8. @ Little One - depending on the make she's in 18-24 months but can still wear 12 month onesies...the funny part is that she needs the 18-24 month size for length but they don't always fit in the waist...if it weren't for her diaper, she'd be losing her pants!!
