One Week

Wow, one week ago to the hour (as I write this) I was just feeling the first twinges of Lillian as she prepared to make her way to this world. It seems like yesterday, but at the same time weeks ago.

Want an awesome story about the sweetest boy in the world? This morning, I was showing Conner some pics of Lilli, and when we got to the one where she was crying, he was so concerned, he said "lilli cry?" And then ran off and came back with a little soft baby toy and said, "Lilli have it, no cry, lovies". I.LOST.MY.SHIT. of course I started crying like a fool. Damn we are so lucky with him.

She is getting better everyday, all we are waiting on now is for her billi level to come down, and after the two massive poops she had today, that should be the case in the morning. The dr gave us a tentative coming home day of Tuesday, but I've gone through this before, so I won't really believe them until we have her in the carseat.

We got moved to the intermediate care section, which is much quieter and much more lax. I got to hold her several times today for longer then the 10 minutes it takes her to eat. She curls up and fits perfectly on my chest.

Again, I can't thank everyone enough for their calls, comments and emails. Knowing people are out there rooting for us makes things a lot easier. Of course this means a barrage of baby photos for the next few days weeks months however long I feel! :-)
