Day 5

Hi everyone - thought I would take a quick moment to thank all of our volunteers who gave of their time and the their sanitizing wipes yesterday! With so many helpers it went really fast, now the house is almost ready for baby Greta to come home.

The floors should be finished tomorrow, and then on Wednesday and Thursday we have cleaning companies arranged to thoroughly clean Greta's house from top to bottom. This will give any remaining irritants a few days to settle before she comes home. Fingers crossed, that may be less than two weeks from now. She continues to amaze everyone with her sunny mood - who else would be this fun and silly after being cooped up for almost 2 weeks?

I've gotten to spend a lot of time with Gavin and my parents while they're here, and everyone is doing really well. It's a real bummer that Kristi has to stay away from the hospital, but of course we'll do what we need to if it keeps Greta healthy. Grammy and Opa have arranged to stay another day or two to help out while Kristi's benched. She can't wait to get back to her girl. Lucky Gavin gets to have some more time with Mommy, though :)

Thanks again to our helpers yesterday, and of course to all of you for your friendship & support.
She's a pretty big miracle for such a small girl :)

Love,
Kari
