Blue Light Special

Eliza had a check-up with her pediatrician today. Everything was normal except she had high levels of bilirubin. Nothing to cause much alarm, she just needs to spend some time in the tanning bed.

We were able to bring this bed with lights home for her to sleep in. Hopefully one night, possibly two, and her levels of bilirubin will return to normal. She doesn't seem to mind it and is looking forward to the nice tan afterwards. We're just glad she can be at home and doesn't have to be readmitted to the hospital.

Welcome Home

Nothing more enjoyable than bringing a newborn baby home. We were all excited, especially Mila to welcome our new addition last Saturday.

Mila loves her little sister; she watches her with great curiosity and will give her kisses when given the opportunity. What a wonderful pair of sisters these two make.

And Then There Were Four

Welcome to this world, Eliza. You have no idea how excited we have all been for you to come into our lives. We love you so much and are happy to have you here.

 

The entire procedure went very well. They say experience counts and I can tell you that Jen seems like an old pro at this stuff. She did exceptionally well during the C-section and the initial bonding encounter was beautiful. Currently her and Eliza are sleeping after such an ordeal. Nice work, Jen. You're such a great mother and I know Eliza is already happy to be in your arms.
