So little



I stuck my baby in a cooler and took pictures of her. It's all I could think of to illustrate how small she is. The pediatrician suggested putting her in a shoe box, but I couldn't find one that wasn't falling apart and didn't smell like shoes. Any suggestions?

We had a little stuffed unicorn that Kezie picked out for Ivy to pose her with to illustrate her growth, but A NICU NURSE LOST IT! She sent Ivy's bedding with the laundry, and the unicorn went with it, never to be seen again. The hospital sends the laundry out, so there was no going to the laundry room and asking about it. Shawn tried to find another one, but they were sold out. It just makes me sick; that unicorn was Ivy's little buddy for five weeks. It was the one personal thing she had in the NICU, and it made me feel better that there was something from us with her all the time. We want to find a new one, but it really won't be the same.
