We gave Zoe this nickname early on because we were so amazed by how much dark brown hair she had on her body. Of course, this hair usually comes off before birth, but she's still got hers for the time being. We're not exactly sure where she got it, but we're thinking it will get blonder as she gets older.
She is about the same today - still fighting an infection. Two of her cultures (blood and lung fluid) grew some type of staph bacteria. The doctors feel confident that the antibiotics are doing their job, but it's hard to wait for her to fully recover. As one of the doctors said today, a day feels like a week and a week feels like a year. Her numbers look good, she's just really exhausted from being sick.

Wow what a trooper she is. I love her nickname :) Tanner had a lot of back hair when he was born too. We are glad to hear she is doing better with the antibiotics. The picture is so cute, but sad that she has to be hooked up to so many things. We would love to see more pictures!!! Take care,

We're so glad to see more of Zoe!!! Thank you for sharing her face with us. You know we love you all . . . and now we can picture more than Zoe's sweet hand all the many times during the day she is uppermost in our minds. We're pulling for her to keep on fighting . . . and thanful that now the docs know what they're treating. We're "treating" with our kind of affirmative prayer -- sending lots of thoughts of strength and love.

Way to go, Zoe. My uncle always called me a little monkey when i was a baby - we are kindred spirits! All that dark hair means you're a fighter. Keep at it, girl!
All my love to you and your parents.
