24-6-2008 - Home Sweet Home!

My mood while writing this blog:
Happy!

Hi world! Here we are...Home sweet home!! Aubrey Rose came home on Thursday, June 19th! It was the most surreal moment of my life...putting her in our carseat, and driving home!! The past 5 days have been a crazy rollercoaster of emotions (as I'm sure most first time moms can relate to!) I've been mostly terrified though because of her stay at the hospital. ::sigh:: But...I'm in love. I spend most of my time staring at her sound asleep...and the rest of my day worrying that she isnt eating enough or is eating too much...isnt sleeping enough, or sleeping too much. My mom says that the worrying NEVER ends...so get used to it! My oldest sister is 32, and she STILL worries about her too! :-) So, i guess I'll have to try to get used to it!! Anyways...because she is a preemie, we have to limit visitors...which is SOOO hard because of course I want to show my little girl off and have all my friends and family over...but she cant get overstimulated right now...so pictures and phone calls will have to do!! I dont want ANYTHING happening to my baby girl! So, I just wanted to tell everyone that our family is home now...and we are learning things about her every day! My biggest worry is that she doesnt know me as well as I wish she would because of her 13 day stay at the hospital :( But, we are working out our bond...her favorite spot is the "kangaroo position" laying on my chest!!! :) I also am OBSESSED with her "chipmunk" noises...preemies make these noises when both awake and asleep...and they are the CUTEST darn things EVER!! I will be posting some new pictures later...so be sure to take a look! Thanks for ALL of your prayers and blessings...with your help, and some strength, we all made it through a very hard time and ended with a happy ending! :)
