I agree that nurses are GREAT! They do soooooo much for their patients and deserve praise for their hard work! :-)
ReplyDeleteSeems like May is full of many events to celebrate and show support for! Nate, I hope it is okay with you if I post a link here in regards to the Bone Marrow Donor Registry. If not, feel free to delete my comment... For those people who love to read comments, I hope you'll check out this website and consider registering if you are healthy and meet their guidelines (I think you have to be between ages 18 to 61 to be able to donate).

That is the cutest picture! Gwyneth is already enjoying a game of 'peek-a-boo' with mommy! How adorable!
ReplyDeleteMay God continue to give the Duke nurses (and nurses everywhere!) the strength, courage, understanding, and intelligence to do the wonderful work they do.
ReplyDeleteI am a nurse (labor and delivery) so thank you for noting nurses day. What a great picture to celebrate the day with.
ReplyDeleteLove nurses! One nurse saved my son's life in the NICU! Is Gwyneth playing peek-a-boo? Too cute!
ReplyDeleteNurses are wonderful in all the ways that they help!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me tomorrow is National Nurses Day. My sister is a RN, I will be sure and give her a call.
What a cute picture!!!
Yes... brilliant little bay, playing peekaboo!
ReplyDeleteCutest. picture. ever.
ReplyDeleteIs she doing that by herself? That would be so impressive!
I'm glad she is getting hungry by herself! I dont know if they told you- but that is a pretty big deal too. We'll be praying that she can take all her bottles all the way so soon!
And thank you for the Nurses Day tip- I guess I have some people to call!
i agree w/andy - my first comment was "she's playing peek-a-boo" TOO SWEET! i love nurses too - my dad had a quadruple by-pass emergency surgery 2 & 1/2 years ago & his nurses were just AWESOME! :)
ReplyDeleteNurses are awesome!! Especially those caring for Tric & Gwyneth, b/c we're able to see, through you, the wonderful work they're doing. :)
ReplyDeleteIt looks like y'all had an amazing weekend! I'm so glad both your girls are doing well. I love the pics of Gwyneth..especially the one where she's sucking her thumb. Too precious!
Lots of love...
And Gwyneth knows how to play Peekaboo already, too!
ReplyDeleteEveryone has already said it, but how cute that she is already playing peek-a-boo with her Mommy!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable picture!

*Yah* for nurses everywhere! And especially *yah* to Duke nurses!
ReplyDeleteThis has to be my favorite picture yet! Just look at your genius baby girl playing peek-a-boo with her mommy. Just curious...have you and Tricia taken to calling each other Mommy and Daddy?
ReplyDeleteSo nice to give credit where credit is due!
ReplyDeletePeek-a-Boo! Nurses are a gift from God....I am thankful for good nurses who give their ALL!
ReplyDeleteGwyneth DOES look like she's doing peekaboo! How cute is that!
ReplyDeleteThanks for mentioning nurses day. I've gotten some of my best coffee mugs and pens from various hospitals I've worked in for Nurse's Day! heh
Seriously, it's a job most of us love.
God Bless you all
Jamie in Texas RN
peek-a-boo already! goodness she is a smart one! ;)
ReplyDeleteThose two are just sooo cute. I love the pics...blessings to you all!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a genius! She already knows how to play Peek-a-Boo! Smart girl...
ReplyDeleteAnd we loved our NICU nurses, too. They have a big job.
Hugs from El Paso,
Karla
she is totally playing peek-a-boo -- what a cutie pie! I love that she is getting some "chub" to her!!
ReplyDeleteI love nurses, too!!! I married one! My hubby is the best cardiac intensive care nurse around!
ReplyDeleteLoving the adorable pictures of your two beautiful girls! I can't wait to check the blog one day soon and read that Gwyneth will be going home! She's heading rapidly in that direction!
Such a cute picture!! I'm sure you guys have some pretty strong bonds with some nurses with as long as you have been in the hospital!
ReplyDeleteI loved the NICU nurses--my son was only there for 5 days, but they were so caring! We actually go to a NICU reunion each year. It is fun! Does Duke have one??
And--as a side note--I couldn't take the pics of Rita's any longer without giving it a try. I took my boys to the mall today and we tried out Rita's (I'm not sure how long it has been there--but only about one month). We all really liked it--that custard is so good!!
I almost forgot that I was going to tell you this: my entire youth group prayed for your family on Friday night. Your story is such a blessing to me, I wanted to share it with them. May you continue to be blessed!
ReplyDeleteso thankful right along with you, for all of the nurses at Duke :)
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing your family's story and for continuing to update us. Though it's been an extremely rough journey, your family has a beautiful story! Without even realizing, you are teaching us all a lot about love, life and how to live it. Your daughter is beautiful and precious and I am so thankful she is doing well and continuing to grow and improve. You are all incredible, amazing people just based on what you have endured and conquered. All my best to you and thank you to the incredible nurses who are always there for us when they are needed!
ReplyDeleteThank you to all nurses including those at Duke who daily extend care and compassion to those in need. A difficult and noble profession! Also to all the sweet nurses that care for precious Gwyneth and Tricia, we are praying for you too!
ReplyDeleteHallo Nate and Tricia,
ReplyDeleteThe most beautiful pic ever! Love it! So happy that all is well with you and the family! Still praying and hoping that the blessings won't stop.
Greetings Gizela
Wow Nate, what a great pic. Peek-a-boo with Mom. How truely wonderful. I bet you are thinking to yourself.....How great is this.
ReplyDeleteOh by the way ....... I love Nurses too, especially the one I married.
Continued prayers for health and improvemnets.
Thanks for the kudos for nurses! They often carry much of the load of patient care in our system.
ReplyDeleteThat is an incredible shot! Nurses ARE wonderful.
ReplyDeleteAWWWWWW, Peek-a-boo mommy
ReplyDeleteYour girls are beautiful. Over and over again, I continue to be so thankful for how "raw" you all are with your faith, struggles and triumphs.
ReplyDeleteIn light of this post, I thought you might enjoy making a onesie like I did when I was pregnant:

It's obviously the bottom one.
Nurses are great!My sister has been one for 39 years.
ReplyDeleteLove the picture.
I can only imagine the gratitude you will be showing Gwyneth and Tricia's nurses today on Nurse's Day! They are so lucky because knowing you guys, you entire family will probably end up spoiling them rotten to thank them for being there all these months for all of you. Yay for nurses, especially for Gwyn's and Tricia's! You guys deserve your special day!
ReplyDeleteI mean how sweet is that. They are both so beautiful. Tricia just has that natural beauty just radiating from her. And well Gwyneth... I don't know if they get any cuter than that. Still praying for you guys. Your strength as a family is amazing. God Bless.
ReplyDeletethat is a very cool picture!
ReplyDeleteAmen to Duke nurses being the best! We loved Jacob's Duke nurses!
ReplyDeleteThat is such a cute picture!
ReplyDeleteOh My! What an adorable picture!!! Thanks for sharing! And, yes, nurses are wonderful!
ReplyDeleteHooray for nurses!!

You do realize that now that you have everyone "hooked on cutie pie" that you will have to keep this blog going forever, don't you?
