3 Months Old... And Still in Delhi

But rather than dwell on that fact, let's just be thankful for how incredibly far they've come! Aren't my kids amazing?

Ever since Dr. Singh told Scarlett she's in the 90th percentile for height (adjusted age), she's been practicing her beach model pose.

Master Hayden asks the nurses to score him a bit of extra oxygen today, you know, since it's his birthday and all.

Promise to be back with the blogging next week because yes, we'll still be in Delhi.

  2. We've missed you lately! Now, Hayden, it's almost full term time, and it's time for you to kick your O2 habit so that you can join Scarlett and mommy on a brand new adventure. It's called an airplane, and I promise you that as a little boy, airplanes are really really cool and you'll love them. BUT, you must tell your little lungs that they are ready to work without the extra push from the oxygen machine. I know habits are hard to break, but I assure you that your mommy and daddy, and your "extended virtual family" have lots of amazing and exciting things planned for you that will give you a far better feeling than the machine. Come on, little big guy, you can do it!!! We are all pulling for you! Hang in there mommy, you're an inspiration to all of us! Scarlett, you are just gorgeous, little darling!

  9. Hang in there... Three months in the NICU is hard, and I'm sure the difficulty is only compounded when you are living in Delhi.

    Hayden, oxygen isn't as cool as you think it is. There's something to be said for breathing room air.....

  11. Rest assured that when you ALL are ready to come home, WE ALL will be there to greet you! Both your children are as beautiful and as resilient as you and Duane, and ALL FOUR of you are just amazing...xxxxxxxx

  12. Wow. They certainly have grown a lot. You must be so worn out, though, and ready to come home. And Duane must be so ready to meet them. Hope you can get out of there soon!

  13. Happy Birthday! Scarlett, you look like a doll. Hayden, I know you deserve to be spoiled on your birthday, but boys in the US get CAKE on their birthday instead of plain ol' oxygen!

    1. Yeah, my children seem a bit "confused" about their nationality. An awful lot of inhaling all sorts of thing going on here in India... Thinking of YOU guys!
