Paisley Update

Paisley is just over a month old now.  She went to the doctor and we have some updated stats: 6.1 lbs (23rd percentile) & 19 3/8 inches long (73rd percentile).  We have a string bean!  Hard to believe, but one month in and she is still about 5 ounces less than Spencer weighed when he was born.

Our only picture of her without her accessories.

Spencer loves his baby sister.

All dressed up with nowhere to go.

As you can see, she is still on oxygen.  We had an overnight test, but that didn't go too well.  We will have another one the week before Christmas.  The doctor thinks we will be ok in Kentucky without oxygen so we won't have to travel with it which is a relief.

Halloween & a Household of 4

Halloween has come and gone.  Chrystal took Spencer out with the Roschs and Hecks while I went to the hospital to feed Paisley.  After I was done I raced home to hand out candy for the last few trick or treaters that were still out.

Blue from Blue's Clues is enjoying his bounty.

We have good news!  Paisley is finally home with us.  She was released on Friday and I forgot how little sleep is to be had a night.  She is on oxygen, but it is the lowest setting possible so we expect her to be off the oxygen when we see the doctor on Monday.

Spence is so excited to have his baby sister home!

She is so handsy.  Here are some Jazz Hands.

It is a huge relief to be home.  While so many of the nurses who helped both Chrystal and Paisley were truly wonderful people, it is just nice to be settled and getting into our routines.
