I got to go visit last Tue in Missoula. It's a long drive 3.5 hours each way.
I got to see and HOLD and cuddle little Ellina. She is still small, but seems so much bigger and more mature every time I see her. I've held her for seconds before, but this time I could actually hold her and cuddle for a few minutes. She reminds me of Mishael when she was a preemie.
I didn't take my camera in the NICU, so I don't have any pictures of her.
Mishael and I took the children to the carousel and park that afternoon. It was good for them all to get out. Gareth loved the horsey and the park was really fun too.
Eliza loved the horsey until the carousel began going. It goes really fast. Your hair is blowing and you want to hold on pretty tight. So the picture below is right after the ride ended. I couldn't capture her little worried face.
