    Isabella Winter rose, 8lb 4oz. Bella for short. Was breathing on her own but had to go to nicu because she wasn't getting enough oxygen. Mamma is doing fine, and bella's o2 level is rising.

    Bella's breathing isn't getting better. They are putting her in a ventilator and starting a workup to check for infection. Are also do a 48hr antibiotic treatment

    @beertimecontinuum was Ben on a breathing tube?

    Yes and an oxygen bell thing over his head. He had low O2 and rapid breathing. Scans showed pneumomediastinum (air in the body cavity causing pressure) and later heart valve issues. NICU for a week, lots of follow up stuff on the heart. He's good now, babies are pretty resilient.

    On another note....

    At a cross roads here. Have decided to get the wife a minivan. On the fence of what to do. Trade the truck in and build the runner and get the wife a shiny new van since I won't have a truck payment any more. Or sell the runner, keep the taco and but her a low mile few yr old van.

    Runner has more room day to day for kids. Also v8. Truck is obviously newer and almost built the way I want it already. Wouldn't be nearly as concerned about beating the runner though as it's 15 yrs old. Plus, beer has a runner now, same year as mine with all the spares I could want, minus engine stuffs.

    Enjoy every moment of it! Way sooner than you'll ever believe possible, you'll be shopping for her first car, making college visit's, and being introduced to the new son in law. We're doing that for a GRAND DAUGHTER already.

    Congratulations!!!! As others have said, ditch the runner and get a USED van. Vans have absolutely no resale value at all so find one with 20-30k on it and call it a day. It's gonna get trashed anyway with 3 kids in it...
