When I was eight weeks old I got sick, and the doctor made me stay in the hospital. I had a fever, but they never found out why. I got very puffy from all of the IV fluids. The nurses had to turn it down because they were giving me too many.
This is the blood pressure cuff they use for babies. It's so little!
When I was all better Mommy and Daddy could take me home.....
.....but when we walked out of the hospital it was snowing! In March Louisiana had snow!
Mommy and Daddy put on capes and took each other's pictures in the snow.
Then they came in, and Daddy wrapped me and Mommy in a soft, warm blanket. Mommy decided to stop working after I got out of the hospital so she could take care of me all by herself.
