A little small, but FINALLY home!
Yes! We are finally home! It feels so good. Although Lauryn is battling the challenge of jaundice, they let us come home with a bili light in hopes she will continue to progress. Her numbers are going down, and she continues to eat more at each feeding. We will be back in on Sunday to get her numbers checked, and hopefully this means we can get rid of the bili light and be able to snuggle with her when she is not eating or dirtying a diaper! It is so sad to see her laying naked on a tanning bed, but we are willing to do whatever it takes to get her where she needs to be! It does give us a little more time to get the house in order and figure out how to manage with the little bean around. Enjoy a few pictures of Lauryn in her bili bed - her hospital home since Thursday night, and us coming home and finally being home. You can tell just how tiny she is in the carseat and newborn outfit - how sillly she looks! Notice how cool-calm-and collected Lauryn looks as she lays on the bili light at home. She must get that relaxed, go wtih the flow attitude from her mother....HA!
So much fun to see pictures of Lauryn and family! We are so excited for you! We plan on visiting once things settle down a little for you. Love following you on the blog! :)
