It’s been quiet in Nyanaland for the past week or two. Quiet is good. It will stay quiet until a week or two following her surgery, when we finally assess her new normal and make a plan towards discharge from there.
Despite the silence on the medical front, Nyana’s done a very good job of being amazing and awesome on the cuteness front. See for yourself.

98% failproof. Attach one 0.5L saline drip bag to one Sofie The Giraffe. Affix Sofie's ear to hollow of soother, creating a firm seal between the soother and the child. Back away slowly.

Nyana is figuring out that these grabby hand things are attached to her. And she can grab things with them.




I loooove the picture of her and her mobile! She’s doing amazing with those little hands, Raiden has just started really trying to reach for things like that, so fun to watch!
She’s quite the cutey, and I can’t believe how big she’s getting:)
Once again, Nyana shows that she has the most amazing wardrobe to show off her own amazing cuteness as she progresses and does her job of exploration of self and the world.
Good JOB, Nyana!!
Wow – she is becoming quite an armful!
In the picture with the blue bear, for the very first time I saw Karen’s features on the baby’s face. How very cool!
Nyana looks soooooo cute in any pose!! We love you!!
Love Lucy and Me!!
That soother contraption is quite possibly the coolest ever. Patent the idea and sell it for trillions!
love LOVE your pictures, she is such a fashionista! re: sophie holding the soother, have you ever seen these? i know a few moms that have them and they seem awesome! if my daughter took a soother id definately get one.

i live in calgary and they sell them here so i assume they also sell them somewhere there if you did want to get one, if you cant find any (or dont have time to get around to find one) feel free to email me and id love to get and send one to nyana <3
Nyana’s soul sister Lucy just sent her one of those! It’s in the laundry right now — hospitals don’t like plush toys, so we need to bend the rules a bit to be allowed to have it. She’s not quite big enough to grasp the concept yet (no pun intended, lol) but she’s going to love it when we bring it in for her!
Does she have redish hair? Oh she just grows even cuter every day! (If that is possible)
It is reddish, Twiggs! We’re hoping it’ll grow in a super copper/strawberry blonde, with those gorgeous blue eyes…
she is seriously just too much awesome.
