Happy Birthday Daddy!

Madeleine and daddy are celebrating birthdays today! Late last night, we went to have a short visit with Peanut and had planned to come home and get some serious sleep. Tim worked hard all day and I have just been running here and there for 2 days...and we're just...tired. BUT...plans change. Madeleine decided that she wanted her daddy to hold her, and that's just what happened. The best birthday present a girl can give her daddy!

More cool things happened tonight too...she got a different isolette. Not only a CLEAN one...but a bigger one because she graduated out of the ELBW bed! (Extremely Low Birth Weight) Madeleine's nurse informed us that Peanut can wear clothes now...do you hear the trumpets sounding? Let the shopping...BEGIN!!! I've been holding off on buying her clothes because I didn't want to get things she'll outgrow before she even wears them?! And she's been given some outfits already, but those are bigger and she'll have to wait until she "busts out" to show those off. We can also take blankets in for her too if we want...our stuff, our smells...our all-natural dye and perfume free detergent!!! Even though whatever they use at the hospital smells really nice...because it has no "scent".

Life is good with miraculous Madeleine.
