Home and Loving it!

We finally made it home with little Khloe on Monday morning and it has been wonderful to have all my girls together! She is such a good baby and a much better sleeper than her sisters. Last night she woke up at 12:45, 3 and 6 which is good for one of our kids, especially since she went right back to sleep in her bed after she ate.

Kamryn was afraid of her at first but I'm not sure why. She was fine as long as Khloe was still, but as soon as she would move Kamryn would freak out. It was actually pretty funny! She has gotten over her fear though and is turning out to be a good little helper. Kenadie loves having a new baby in the house again and is willing to do whatever we ask of her.

It's so amazing to watch Chris with our daughters. He is so helpful and willing to do anything. In fact, he's probably changed 95 percent of Khloe's diapers since she's been home. Everytime he picks her up, he talks to her and kisses her cheeks. He loves holding her, especially when she's awake and looking around and he has little chats with her. I couldn't ask for a better husband and father and I am so blessed to have him and our daughters in my life.

Sometime I'll write about our NICU experience, mostly because I need to remember it for my own history, but for now here's a few more pictures.

Finally leaving the hospital.


Trying out her swing for the first time, I love her expression!


Her little "tube top". We have to put Coband around her little body to hold the electrodes for the heart/apnea monitor on, otherwise they fall off and we have alarms going off all the time.


Chris and his girls (minus me ;-) )


Thanks again to everyone for your continued prayers and support! They mean the world to us!

I love Kamryn's face in the last shot - (mom what have you done to us). They are all so cute. Khloe is adorable and looks so big (good job mom). Keep up the great work.
