she's finally home!
all we've been doing today is laying on our bed staring at her.
we're beyond satisfied doing only that too.
last night the NICU had us spend the night in one of their rooms with her because she's still on oxygen, so they wanted us to get used to the machine before discharging us. we were so excited to have a sleepover with our girl. and ivy was pretty excited too because she freaking slept only one hour. which means, so did we. that morning we were both looking so rough. we were brushing our teeth and looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh. brad said, " welcome to our new life". i can only imagine having a full week with sleep like that. or a full month.
but i have to say, the times in the night when brad was laying down trying to sleep, while i was rocking her with her wide eyes staring right up at me, with only the dim light on....were priceless. it makes me want to cry thinking about it. or at 2:30 in the morning she had a huge dukie that was so loud. me and brad were hovering over her little bed trying to change her and laughing so hard because of how intense her farts were. those are the moments i know we're going to live for. ahhhhhhhhh, i can't wait!

So happy for you! She is beautiful! I think she looks a lot like Reese. And don't remind me of the sleepless nights I get to look forward to. Ha!

Hooray!!!! I'm glad she is home with her mommy and daddy! Best of luck! Try to get some rest and enjoy every snuggle with her, cause soon she won't want to snuggle anymore! They grow up too fast!
That first little bit was pretty crazy for us too but so, so awesome. Congratulations, you guys. We're so thrilled for you.
