 7/1/2019 Shhhhhhhhhhhhh...!
 

All's quiet for the moment. Sis has Ruby and June growing beautifully in Bloomington and DanaMarie is studying for her boards in Louisville.

The update on the girls is that they are now arouind 10 lbs. Sis has a system and things are going well.

DanaMarie is now going to be seeing her OB weekly to monitor how little Eva is doing. With her boards scheduled for 8/2...we are really hoping that little Miss EvaMarie stays put til after her due date on 8/5! Need lots of prayer there....thanks.

Am working 5-11 today...off tomorrow and then 4 in a row over the weekend. It's my turn to do a holiday...no problem there. I will say that after the 3rd day in a row of talking to people on the phone...I've used up all my words! That 4th day I'm working really hard to stay tuned in!

Tomorrow night will be movie night. Haven't been to the movies in ages....will go with friends. Really looking forward to taking in a summer blockbuster. Think it will be "Knight and Day." Anybody seen it???

Talked with Suzy and Norm yesterday. They are doing well and Ericka's Bat Mitvah went beautifully. The hired a videographer for the day. Am very anxious to curl up on the sofa with Ericka by my side and watch that movie, too! She now has her toe shoes and is doing great things in the studio.

On the way home from work last night, I had a good girlfriend chat with Ruth Ushijima. The 6 hr time difference makes that work! and we talked about dates for my visit this fall. Looks like it might be "Aloha Time" in October after the babies are here...and all is well and settled.

It's cloudy this morning...a good time to head to the gym. Will let you know when anything happens. God Bless....
Much love, Sue

 6/26/2010 A bit overdue....
 

Hello from my front porch. Il Divo is playing,iced coffee by my side and the Carolina sun is shining as I write to you from my favorite HHI Style rocker.

First...please forgive. I know you've been waiting to hear about the girls. It's been busy and I was waiting for a time to sit back and enjoy writing to you. Here goes...

I arrived back home Wed evening @ 10PM after driving in from Louisville. It was a good trip but emphsis on "trip"...this was not a vacation.

First, an update on Sis and the girls. Sis is doing an amazing job caring for Ruby and June. It's a non stop job....day and night without a minute to spare. She is a wonderful Momma...so tender and nurturing. Aaron is completely comfortable with the little ones...and is a really good Papa.

Ruby and June are just dear...perfect....beautiful...you get the picture. Ruby is an absolute clone of Sis. A little round head with those Schelble cheeks. She took my breath away...tears started to flow. I truly think this little one would sleep if she was standing on her head in a corner. So sweet. June is smaller...and as I was holding her...it hit me. And Sis said, "I was wondering if you'd see it"...she's baby DanaMarie. Smaller, delicate...so precious. She's taller but seems smaller. They both have Aaron's long fingers and toes.

I was there to see their first tubbie bath! Good News...we have two more waterbabies!!! They liked their baths.

How 7.5 lbs can steal your heart so quickly is quite amazing...but it happened. They are beautiful.

Also had the joy of attending DanaMarie's graduation and baby shower. At her graduation, she rec'd the award for Cardio-Thoraci Anesthesia, for Regional Anesthesia...and was also to receive the Critical Care Award...but they realized and then decided to give it to another resident. Needless to say...she has worked hard and done a great job. Graduation was held in the newly refurbished Kentucky Derby Museum at Churchill Downs. FYI...if you're in Louisville...it's wonderful. Check it out.

The next day it was on to Lexington for DanaMarie's baby shower. Pam's dear girlfriends gave her a beautiful shower...and she rec'd lots of loot! Great things...it was just lovely.

The time flew....Wed. evening pizza in Lexington with Pam and Barry. Thurs lunch in Salem, Ind. with Linda and then dinner at home with Nick and Linda. I am blessed to have the most wonderful co-parents in law on the planet. Friday to Bloomington to see Ruby, June and Sissy....then back that evening for DanaMarie's graduation in Louisville. Sat...to Lexington for the shower and then to Lake Herrington to go for a summertime boat ride. Loved that. Barry grilled burgers...and we stayed at their condo at the lake.

Up Sunday...Buckeye and Banjo in tow...and back to the 'ville. Then onto Bloomington. Did a couple night shifts with the babies...as best I could. Am still learning how Sissy does things for her girls. Things sure are different from 1975!!! No sleeping on the tummy! I am learning to be Baby Wise...that is the new approach that the girls are using. Who says you can't teach a gramma new tricks!!! I Will Learn...I promise.

Drove Louisville to Lexington for one last cup of coffee with Pam...then headed South to God's Country. 10 hrs later...I arrived just before 10PM. Needless to say...Thursday, I was nearly comatose.
Worked Friday-Monday. Tuesday Jan came over from Tybee Island. Great girlfriend time. I drove over Wed. We slipped right back into the groove that only longtime friends understand. It's like you were never apart. Shared lunch, laughs, shopping and a parking ticket! Yes, we were talking so much, we forgot to feed the meter!
Worked Thursday....and then home Friday to start the great "dig out!" Bills are paid and laundry done...tomorrow is church and beach day! Hallelujah!

Hope this finds you well and enjoying a wonderful summer. All is well.
Much love, Sue. RN,BWG (Baby Wise Gram, in training.)
PS...Sis asked me not to post pics of the babies. She will do pics on a website and then I'll send you the password.

All for now...........xoxox

 6/5/2010 Back from the beach....and
 

heading to work 5-11pm in Savannnah. The island is gorgeous....90 degrees and summer is here!!!

Here's a quick update on the girls before I head out...

Had a great chat with Sis on Thursday. After difficult days, she figured out that June and Ruby were crying because they were hungry. After some supplemental formula and the milkman arriving...things started to improve. Sleep is still a commodity, but they are getting things figured out a day at a time. She sent some darling pics after their baths yesterday. Will put them in the gallery.

OK...Hi Ho, Hi Ho....to Savannah I go. Hope all is well.
Much love, Sue

 5/30/2010 "two peas in Bloomington"
 

All is progressing...

"The girls" arrived home on schedule late Friday afternoon. They are gaining weight...latching on... and keeping Mom and Dad very busy.

Their first trip to the pediatrician's went well. Sis said he was very pleased with how the girls were doing. Their supplemental feedings seem to be keeping them on track and so far they have gained 3 oz. Sleeping in their own cribs, in their own room and eating every 3 hours is the plan. Anita says that you can tell they are sisters, however June looks just like Aaron with his blood type and Ruby looks just like Sis with her blood type and the "Schelble cheeks."

She sounded good yesterday and sent a new pic which I posted. Really sweet.

Thank you, Cin, for placing the pink flowers for me on Dan's grave. He would have been so proud.

Time for coffee on the deck and then church...it's a really good one!

I know what you're thinking....and you're absolutely right!
Bye for now...Have a wonderful weekend.
Much love, Sue
