10/1 week old


We have completed a week at home, and we are all still alive. Some more sleep deprived than others, but we are happy to be together! Sadie's actual age is 10 weeks, and her corrected age is one week. She is slowly gaining weight. She eats every three hours, and I alternate between a higher calorie formula and breast milk. They want her to have as many extra calories as she can so she can grow. She now weighs 6.lb-11 oz.
The sisters enjoy having her around, and I like that they can entertain Sadie! Analise is a big help, and Maisie tries to be. :)
We are adjusting to the monitor and oxygen. Thankfully we don't have many alarms. It's not very easy packing her up to take her anywhere. She has only been on a couple of outings, and it's a good thing she is light in the carseat. By the time you add the other things, you have your arms full!
I still see her as our miracle baby and sometimes get overwhelmed with God's faithfulness!

Love the picture! I am so glad you posted. I have been wondering how your week has gone. I know that the girls must be so excited to have their sister home. What a true blessing and miracle God has given!
