Eva blew past the 4 lb. mark two days ago with a 65 gram increase in one day..we were so proud, though slightly expecting something of the sort. She is called by the nurses 'Mangione', meaning a big eater.(could also translate into glutton) Notice how alert she seems in the pic...we have been told she may not really wake up til her original due date..but we catch her for a few minutes wide awake and alert every day.
On a slightly disappointing note, Eva will most likely be at the hospital over Christmas, as she has a follow up eye exam on the 27th...either way we are ready for her having unpacked all her belongings, set up a crib, and tending to all the little things little people need.
Auguri!

She definitely looks wide awake and alert to me! Wonderful that she gained so much weight in such a short period of time. She is definitely a fighter!
I'm sorry to hear that she won't be home for Christmas, but a late present like that will be just as wonderful as one on Christmas Eve!
Yea Eva!!! I'm sure you cannot wait to have her home.
Awesome! Thank you so much for allowing us to follow Eva's incredible journey. What a transformation! We're so happy for you, Dana Benedetto and family
what a sweet cipollina! she got a cute stocking from the Mangan aunts and an outfit that should fit her when she comes back to the States! Her cousins can't wait to pounce on her!

Hi Eva, I think you're doing so good and I'm so happy that I'm going to get to know you real soon. Bless you beautiful beautiful baby girl. And tell Bill and Christi that I'm coming back on the 1st!
Happy New Year from the Saratsis family (George, Julianne and Leocadia)! We are keeping you in our prayers!
