I'm a Big Brother!

Giving us the scare of our lives, Zoe arrived with the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck six times with a knot in it. All of the acrobatics that she was doing inside landed us all in trouble. Under stress, she aspirated some meconium which has led to further stress and breathing problems. Luckily, she has a great deal of fight in her and was born right down the hall from an amazing NICU. Since Wednesday she has made an incredible improvement, wowing all of the nurses and doctors. Luke and I are exhausted and overwhelmed, but unbelievably grateful. There is no indication that there should be any long term problems once we get her all the way healthy. She already has a pretty good appetite and a lot of spunk. At this point, every day is bringing good news and she should be home with us early this week.
