Lainey's Progress

She's actually awake right now!!


St. Patrick's Day outfit!!

We just got back from the hospital and Laine is doing SO much better. It's hard to think that a week ago I was in labor and going to have my sweet baby girl in the next few hours. I always knew that I would love my baby a lot, but this love I feel for her is completely unexplainable. I know all mothers say that their children are amazing and incredible, but to think of what this little girl has gone through in her short life is unimaginabley amazing. She is so strong and so determined that I know she will be able to do anything she wants to in her life. We are so blessed to have this little girl that I still sometimes catch myself in a daydream that is completely about her.

Tonight, she ate all her bottle (it's breastmilk, we just havent quite mastered the actual breast) which was awesome. Her daddy is actually better at getting her to eat her whole bottle than I am. Just to mention...he is incredibly amazing as well. He has been my rock and my strength through this whole thing and I couldnt imagine my life with anyone else. We think that if she continues to eat as well as she did today that we might be home by this weekend. All of the nurses are so surprised we are still here...but it's up to the little angel when we get to go home. I'll update more when there is more to talk about!
