Alexis Hope Mannion

My best friend Deidra had baby Alexis on Monday at 9:00 pm. Talk about a nice anniversary present to me! Alexis was 8 weeks early. She weighed in at 3 lbs. 10 oz. and is 16 inches long. She's little but she's doing awesome. They are expecting Alexis to be in the NICU for about 3 to 4 weeks. Deidra should be able to go home tomorrow. Please say a prayer that Deidra heals quickly and that Alexis continues to grow and that she is able to eat on her own in a couple weeks. She is doing awesome for a preemie but prayers are always welcome.
