Sunday 12th June

Another lovely weekend in Newcastle for us all; Elizabeth's doing really well and just looks, well, peachy! She's also taking great interest in the world around her. Her mum bought her a set of shapes covered with high-contrast patterns and she just goggles at them. Her mum's hours put in at the bedside - and they are very many - also mean that whenever Elizabeth hears her voice she's immediately looking around to find out where her mum is!

The exomph is growing skin at a rapid rate, which is great. I've deliberately not posted pictures up here showing the exomph uncovered, as it really ain't pretty; we have taken quite a few and in due course will be doing a more 'medical' diary to help other parents with exomph children understand what's coming. Such information certainly helped us prepare.

But in the meantime, we like to focus on the fact that, sure, she's got a large haggis-looking thing on her tum, but she's a beautiful, alert, growing, fully-functioning baby girl !
