Hello my foodie friends. My daughter Olivia surprised us all with an early arrival a couple of weeks ago. We are truly blessed to have her. As she was born over a month early I've been spending much time travelling back and forth from home to the NICU. She has no health issues, but as most preemies do, just needs time to develop her strength to eat without the assistance of a feeding tube.
Thank you all for your wonderful recipe suggestions of food to make and freeze. I actually didn't get to make any of it yet as I was going to grocery shop right after my doctor's appointment. My doctor then sent me for blood work and then decided to keep me overnight and then decided that it would be in our best interests healthwise for our baby to be born that next day. Fortunately, I have a wonderful mother who flew out to lend a hand and a wonderful husband who shopped and planned our meals. I will make use of those recipes sometime in the near future.

Congrats! My 19 year old was a preemie too....but in those days they just let us stay in the hospital with our babies...times have changed. I agree with Barbara...we will need updates when you can find the time. You shall be busy for the next while for sure!

Hey Kristen! She's adorable!
My daughter was born weighing 1lb 14oz. She was 2 months early! She was in the NICU for 67 days so I know how you are feeling! She is now 18 months old and doing amazing. Amazingly, she never had ANY health problems! She's now a happy little girl that is right on track for development.
