FINALLY!!

It seemed like it would never happen, but after two L...O...N...G months, Roxie is finally home with us!

We did a "room-in" with her at the hospital on Saturday night, and that went really well. The nurse on duty that day said she hadn't gotten her to eat very large amounts, but somehow we had her finishing nearly every bottle she took that night. Maybe she was trying to make Mommy and Daddy look good so she could come home. :) Here are a few pictures from Saturday night....


She also got weighed as usual (5 pounds!!) and Daddy gave her a bath...


On Sunday morning, after getting to catch up on a bit of sleep missed over the night, we headed back down to the NICU where Roxie's doctor told us she would be going home that day. Of course, we had her going home outfit all ready to go and got her dressed.....



And we were on our way....


That's it for now. I believe there's a diaper calling my name. :)

Congradulations, Dede, Aaron, and little Roxie! I've subscribed to Roxies'blog...and saw the update in an email today. I am SOOOOOO happy for you guys. (((HUG))) It's been a long time coming, but you're all together now, and I couldn't be happier for you. Just LOVE all the pics...especially the second one (she's asleep...kinda on her side...looks like a little butter ball LOL)

Hugs to you, lady.
