The three of us made our second trip to the hospital in Springfield this morning to meet with the pediatric othopedic again. He was so pleased and a little surprised to see how well Gage's hips were doing and we got the OK to bath and change her onesie once a day now. (The harness had been on full time this past week and was supposed to be that way for five more weeks) Two weeks from now we return for a bigger! harness and hopefully continued news of progress. It's been a while since we have checked in and I"m convinced our little peanut appears more like a little linebacker these days (although this could be the look she gets by wearing the harness underneath layers of t-shirts... it's been frigid here lately!) She is sleeping more at night and for that we are so thankful! She also made her first trip up to see Gran and Grandad in NH and check out our her new house in Sugar Hill. It is on schedule to be finished in April and it is really beginning to take shape. The windows and stairs are in and the sheet rock goes up next week. I have a photo of her in the middle of all the construction. (Well, she is hidden in that car seat somewhere!) The other photo is Gage watching football (the Patriots must have just scored) with Dad.
Thanks for all your comments and well wishes, Katie

So glad to hear that Gage is adapting well. After telling my two coworkers about Gage's brace, I found out that they BOTH had the same thing! One had the brace when she was first born, and hasn't had any complications since. It wasn't caught for my other coworker until she was much older. She just went through really extensive hip surgery, that Gage will be able to avoid! They both are first born females! Crazy.
The photos are wonderful. I love seeing Gage in her new, beautiful living room in NH. She is so cute in the one with her arms up looking straight at the camera(i.e. you). Am sending you acouple of presents from folks down here and the adress list. STAY WARM Lots of Love, Mere
I must say that first pic is my favorite. Is she angry? Is she flexing? It's gold.
