As most of you know today is the day Delilah came home! I told the doctors I was not ready after what happened yesterday, but it happened for a reason she got an extra little boost by getting her blood transfusion and did amazing with her car seat test once Martha realized she did so bad yesterday cause the pink head rest we brought in to hold her head still. It made her neck go to far down and made it to where she couldn’t breathe.
Dr.Martin and Delilah Without the Doctor we wouldnt have Delilah
The car ride home was great for Delilah lol she did amazing Rick on the other hand I thought was going to have a heart attack with all the stupid people on the road. But we made it and had a little welcoming committee my friend (and neighbor) Amanda and her 2 youngest kids came out and met us, they waved to Delilah as we walked past and told us how cute she was.
Rick and his two favorite girls
My mom was here with Aria waiting for us to get home, I wish we caught the look on Arias face when she saw her sister for the first time. It was so cute to see how excited and happy she was. Aria kept saying, “Oh there you are Lilah”. (Like phineas and Ferb do with Perry lol) Aria was a big help when I fed Delilah she watched me to make sure I did it right lol and she even helped me burp her. Aria is super excited to be a big sister, she was so good that when we told her to step back and let Delilah sleep she did. She helped me change the diaper (well told me how stinky it was haha)
Aria checking on Delilah
It’s bitter sweet leaving the NICU the nurses became like family to me we had the same ones most of the time so I got to talk to them and get to know them on a personal level. I made another really good friend in there, Stacy and her sassy little baby who we pray for and ask you do too it’s sad to leave them but we text and facebook to keep in touch. Plus once her little sassy chick gets home our girls will have to have a play date instead of setting off monitors at each other lol
Rick getting his snuggles in the camo chair :)
Well it’s time for a bottle so I should get off here. Ill still keep everybody updated on Delilah and all our crazyness with micro preemies. Tomorrow is another eye appointment to make sure the ROP is still going away.
Hugs and Love
Me and my girls
You are so blessed. ♥
