It's time to go home!!!!

Before we could bring the girls home, their doctor wanted us to 'room' in with the girls the night before we took them home!   (we had to do it with Brexton so we were hoping to get out of it, but we were willing to do whatever we needed too to take them home!) Kory and I feed the girls their 7 pm feeding, dropped Brexton off to have a sleepover with Aunt B and Aaron and we decided to go out on a date!  Probably the last one for a while! ;)  We ate supper at the cellar, got ice cream, and enjoyed a quiet drive before we headed back to the hospital for the next feeding and to call it a night!  The room we stay in is just across the hall from the NICU.  So we were able to unhook the girls from all their monitors and headed across the hall.  Nurse Shelby and Shelby were on the for the night so we were excited!  The nurses came in every three hours at feeding time to do vitals and check on us.  We didn't sleep much that night...not just because of the girls...but we were enjoying our last visits with Shelby and Shelby!

Miss Olivia is wide awake in the middle of the night!


We survived the night!!  The next morning we got ready for the day and then headed back over to the NICU for the doctor to do rounds and get final instructions!  Brexton came back to the hospital a little later and we were ready to head home!!!!  :)




We are home!!!  It's so hard to believe!!  The girls are exactly 3 weeks old but really only 35 weeks gestation!  We are so blessed they are home and healthy!!!
