Pictures from today

Well, things here are good. Miss Emery is now 11 days adjusted age (the difference between when she was really supposed to be born) and doing great! She is 5 lbs 15 ozs. Will probably hit the 6 lb. mark tomorrow or the next day! She is doing so great. She had her eye exam again this week and they want to see her back in another month-things looked good.
She eats good, sleeps good and loves to sit in her boppy pillow and her swing and bouncy seat. We are looking forward to her first Christmas!
Please continue to pray for my sister. She need strength and healing. She had another blood clot in her arm this week but they say it should go away on its own. Please pray the God would restore her spirit as well!
Pray for Lukey too as they are testing him for RSV. This year has truly been a rough year for our family, but we are so blessed ten fold as well!
We wish all of you a wonderful family Christmas and pray that 2007 is fantastic for you all!

Merry Christmas Pictures

Hook Em Horns

Cousin Lukey sent me his shirt, Uncle Matt sent me the socks and Aunt Heather sent me the pacifier to make up my UT Horns Ensemble! Don't you just love it!

First Week Home!

Well, my first week home has been great! I sure love my home! Mommy and Daddy have been loving on me. I had 2 baths already, I sure love to take a rub a dub dub in my blue tub!
I weigh 5lbs and 7 oz.s now. I went to see my Dr. this week and she says everything is great!
Please continue to pray for my Aunt Heather for full healing from all of her surgeries!!!

Homecoming!!

Today was the big day. We brought Emery home today. I think that Michael drove about 40 all the way home. He is so cute with her. He worries that the bumps in the road are going to hurt her! Adorable!
It was a very sad day for us leaving the NICU. After 74 days, the people become your family. Andrea was off today, but came up to say goodbye and wish us well. We are going to miss her most. What a God send she was.
Emery picked the coldest day to come home. It was absolutely freezing, but at least she got to sport her warm fuzzy hat. She is such a diva!
Everything has gone pretty good tonight. We got home about 4pm and got settled in. Since she came home on O2, she has a monitor which keeps up with her breathing and heartbeat. Everything went well with it until one of her leads came looses and it was going off every 3 minutes. I think that I have checked to make sure that she is breathing about 100 times today. It is hard also to not just sit and hold her all night long. But then she may get spoiled.... oh who am I kidding, she already is!
It is so amazing to have her home! To be able to hold her and kiss on her anytime we want. What a wonderful thing, this motherhood!
Hope you enjoy the pictures!!!

Let it snow...

My silly mommy dressed me up today in my snow sweater and hat. She is getting me ready for the cold weather that is supposed to blow through!
