Home Sweet Home
Good news: after 9 weeks in the hospital, they finally let me go. I was beginning to think I was going to need to change my permanent address! I will miss all my great nurses, and I will definitely miss my baby girl! Before leaving her I was able to change her, take her temp and snuggle some. I am so thankful that her Grandpa is close by and can check on her every day. She continues to do well, and they keep increasing her feeding amount. Grandpa just called to let me know that Sadie is virtually back to her birth weight. Yeah!
It was sad telling my nurses/friends goodbye, but it felt great to get out in the big world again. The best of it all was greeting my girls when I arrived; it's been so wonderful to have the close by.
I continue to feel well the majority of the time, but I am slow moving and trying to take it easy. I am spending the days with my mother-in-law and girls so I don't overdo it. She has taken great care of us all...some of them for weeks!
The song that comes to my mind when I look back at this journey with God is by Philips, Craig and Dean: "Jesus your Love Amazes Me." The first line is, "You dance over me, while I am unaware..." That's how I view the time in the OR...angels dancing around while so many people fervently prayed. His love truly amazes me, and I pray you feel the same awe.

I cannot imagine how good it feels to be in your own house with 2 of your girls and your hubby! I bet they all want a ton of attention. So glad that Grandpa can check up on Sadie. Can't wait to meet her.
We are keeping you all in our prayers.
