Coming home soon...











Well, Mackenzie was supposed to be discharged on Saturday...but she had a little choking episode early Saturday morning, so she couldn't leave. They had been adding a little rice cereal with the breast milk to help with her reflux issues, so I think she choked on it. Maybe the nipple hole was cut a little too big, maybe she got a "chunk" of cereal, maybe the nurse was not pacing her.......who knows, but we have been there to feed her every feed since then and she has done fine. Anyway, as long as she has a good night tonight, she's out of there in the morning!!!! So with that said, Mike said he will be there every feeding tonight to make sure she does good.
The pictures above are a little "photo session" we had with one of the NICU nurses the other day. We got to dress her up and take a few pics with her in clothes instead of hospital blankets! It was a lot of fun, I don't think it was all that much fun for her, but she did pretty good during the whole thing :-)

Isn't it so awesome to be able to put clothes on her! A little color on her clothes does wonders.
Isabella has the same cherry PJ's. We love them! We will be praying she comes home.

Congrats!

As I told Mike, you two get to bring home the best Christmas present ever!

I really can't believe how big she is! She was the same weight as the twins, but 3 weeks earlier...and long! They were only 16.5", even Ayla was only 19"! You guys might wind up with a basketball star!

Enjoy her!

She doesn't look too excited about the fashion show and does look better than the hospital blankets. Hope she can come home soon.
