Finally Home!

Well, it's been several days since our last post, sorry about the cliffhanger! Sadie has proven to be a strong & healthy girl! After just one day on a Billy Bed & under a light she went down from 13.9 in her Billy count to 9.8, and then, after spending Saturday night with us in our room on just the Billy Bed, she went down to 8.8, which put her in the low <45% risk zone. The picture on the left is when Kathie was taking pictures of Sadie giving us her, "I really like my mommy milk" faces, isn't she cute?! Kathie & I are really enjoying our time together with our little blessing, even though we are both kind of exhausted most of the time. Sadie's favorite time to be awake, alert, & really cute is between 2am-5am; which has a prequel of about 15 minutes of fussiness leading up to the, "I'm hungry, get out of bed & feed me" cry, and followed by about an hour of Daddy rocking her & singing to her to try to get her to go back to sleep. During the day she is asleep for the most part, so we really have some major schedule shifts that need to occur! I was lucky enough to have 3 weeks of vacation this year, so I took 2 of them for after Sadie's arrival to help Kathie & to bond with our little one. So, things couldn't be better for us & our little family. We are so excited to watch her grow, & have already noticed a change in her from when we were at the hospital. We can't believe she already looks different! I am going to post a slideshow of some more cute pictures, which will link up to our entire album on photobucket.com, enjoy!
