j8ear

Sorry I missed this question. Yes she was. It came after she was about 3 weeks old, or really -2.1 months old ;-) Covered her entire body but was most noticeable on her face. They had name for it, but I can't remember what it is.

Just looked it up: it's called lanugo. It eventually went away, but was very soft, very white, and frankly very beautiful. We weren't able to hold j8earette jr at the time, but we could touch her gently through the isolette.

In the third photo on her site you can kind of see how her white hair is continuous from her eyes back. It was interesting because you could still make out eyebrows, as the hair was a little thicker where they should be, in spite of everything else also having visibly white/blonde hair.

I'll have a full update for those interested on her 'due date', which is the 21st of July. She will be an 'adjusted' one year old then

She is doing splendidly, even though we recently had a rather disconcerting genetics visit a few weeks backs.

I'll detail it for those reading in a few weeks.

Thanks again to every one who took a moment to read this account, to those who had good thoughts or prayers, to my wife who toils daily to make sure our warrior princess is superbly cared for....and mostly to you j8earette jr.

You are the sunshine of my life
