Coming home!

After a week in the NICU, we were more than excited to get our baby girl home. Janie had her last round of anitbitics around 3:00AM on Monday June 27th so when we got there that morning, her IV was out! It was so great to hold her and not have to worry about her IV. Here is Mike waking her up so we can get her changed and head home.

After some last minute instructions from the nurse and the doctor, Janie was discharged! Here we are ready to go!

We strapped her into her car seat and headed home. I thought she looked hilarious in her seat. Check it out -

She's just so floppy...the shoulder straps took over! It was even more fun when we got her home to start see what things she  might like in the house. Mike put her in the crib and she just looked tiny -

One of the highlights of coming home was getting to introduce Janie to her cousins, Miriam and Maggie. Janie was taken to the NICU so quickly after she was born that Miriam and Maggie were not able to hold her. I was so sad about that! Both girls waited somewhat patiently for a week, but then were our welcoming committee when we got home. It was adoreable!
