Evening update: What a busy, but perfect day! Emmy finally got her IV and pacing wires out and got disconnected from all of the monitors...thank goodness we're done with that! She has been through more in her first 3 weeks than most of us will endure in a whole lifetime, and she's tolerated it all so well. She is really a very happy baby...only cries over dirty diapers!
We got home around 3:30pm and Brinley was waiting anxiously. She is infatuated with her little sister, but I'm pretty sure she thinks Emmy is a very life-like baby doll. She wants to hold her, pick her up, swing her, pat her, kiss and hug her...and the list goes on. She doesn't like the feeding tube or oxygen in Emmy's nose and has tried to remove both multiple times. We all have a lot of adjusting to do, but we're looking forward to it:) Here are some fun pics from our day...
LOOK, no tubes, wires, or monitors...I'm free!!!
But only for a minute, Mommy was just getting ready
to put the feeding tube back in:(

Getting up close and personal...Brinley was right
in Emmy's face within 30 seconds of us walking in the door!

Emmy looks horrified...poor baby!
Brin will learn to be a wonderful big sister:)
