WE are home!!!
















After a 4 day hospital stay and a 5 day NICU stay we are home...and came home TOGETHER!!! Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers they definitely worked!! My sister Wendi updated you perfectly!! Thanks Wendi!! Libbie's blood test for infection thankfully came back negative, and I was able to stay wed. night in a nesting room with Libbie so me and Libbie came home together yesterday. I was so excited to get home!!! Me and Libbie are doing good, Libbie is 5 lbs 4 oz now and has no problems. I will update a little more when I have more time, but here is a few pics. Thanks again!!!!

Oh Shelbi I am SOOOOOO happy that you got to bring her home with you! What an amazing blessing! She is so beautiful and you are such a trooper for hanging in there for all that. It's an amazing thing to bring a little life into the world. I am so happy for you. Please, please let me know if I can do anything for you!

I'm so glad that all is well with both you and Libbie. What a relief her tests came back negative. I'm sure you and your whole family were so excited that she got to come home with you. Congrats on your newest addition, she's absolutely beautiful!
P.s. I love the name Libbie

Oh Yeah! I am so glad that you found us. Thanks for your sweet comment. I was so so jealous when I saw that Libbie was gone. (so happy for you!) Lucy still remains in the NICU and may be there for a few more days. Since I have never had this experience before, it makes my heart break. She is finally eating from the bottle and has gotten rid of her oxygen. Libbie is so precious and cute! I wish you all the best and will check back for the latest updates! So nice to have met you and I swear Libbie and Lucy or you and I must have been buddies before we came here!!!
