Allie's Extra Stay

Well, it turns out Allie was a bit jaundice causing us an extra stay at the hospital. Mommy was released from the hospital on Sunday and we were moved to pediatrics where Allie got to stay in a nice warm bed. As much as we hated seeing here in this little bed. She really did look cute and cozy in there with her sleeping mask on (Uncle Cashew's got nothin' on her!) and the blue lights. Also, she got a really nice tan in there, definitely enough to make her momma jealous.

After two extra nights we finally got to come home.

Even after we got to go home, we had to have you on a biliblanket, it made you look like a little glow worm. After going to the hospital every day for the rest of the week, you finally got rid of all the bad stuff and pulled out of the jaundice. We were so relieved when we didn't have to watch you get your heel pricked every day!

2.5 Days Old

Max, today you and your mom got to go home from the hospital! When I saw a picture of you two all set to leave I told your Grandma I could not believe that you were going home with my sister! It is hard to believe that today you will sleep in the crib with the bumpers and bedskirt that your mom, great grandma, grandma, and I spent hours making. That you will wear the clothes that we so neatly hung in your closet and swing in your really cool swing! I don't think I will really believe you are here, and that you are my sisters baby until I hold you in my own arms and feel your little fingers wrapped around mine!

I can't wait to see you! Love,
Auntie Em
