1 Week Old & Making Progress!

Our little Hayley is doing very well! She no longer has oxygen; IV; antibiotics; or feeding tube. She has a healthy appetite and is sleeping soundly between feedings. She continues to make improvements each day. We are crossing our fingers that we can bring her home this weekend!

We have been visiting as much as possible as well as both working full time. Josh will take a few days off when she comes home and I will officially start my 6 weeks of maternity leave. We are both so anxious to have her home with us.

Life has been quite different since she has arrived; very busy to say the least! I am keeping busy with work during the day and hurrying to finish up cleaning the house and organizing her room at night before her big homecoming!

So excited for our family to meet here and be able to enjoy her. We just can't take our eyes off of her each time we visit. We are so lucky and so blessed to have her in our lives. She is absolutley perfect!

Here are a few recent pictures! Enjoy!

A Family is a Little World Created by Love

I started this blog in March 2010 to document all that is happening in our lives. Josh and I were married September 12, 2009. We found out we were expecting our first child in October 2009 and were blessed with our daughter, Hayley Ann, on June 4, 2010. We found out we were expecting our second child in March 2011 and were blessed with our son, Hudson James, on December 4, 2011. We shared the news about Baby #3 in March 2013 and welcomed Hazel Kathleen to our family on November 25, 2013! Baby #4 was announced in May 2015 and Harper Louise joined our family January 17, 2016. I hope that the books created from this blog will serve as a special way to look back over the years when Josh and I are older and to pass on to the kids to give them a glimpse into their childhood and all of the fun times we shared!
