Thursday was the day we expected to bring her home. I woke up at about 5 feeling sick and vomiting ensued. The hospital called at 7:30 and told us to come and pick her up. We decided to wait a while to see if I started to feel better because we didn't want to bring her home to all my germs! I guess we waited too long because they called back a couple hours later and said they wanted to keep her an extra day, just to be sure.
We were pretty disappointed, but at the same time we saw the blessing of it. Since I was sick there was no way I would be able to take care of her! Also, in the evening around 8 o'clock, our power unexpected shut off.
As you can see, we were the only ones with trouble. The entire city (about 25,000) people were without power.I called up to the hospital to check on Holly and everything was fine. Thankfully they have a generator so it was business as usual for them.
Friday morning came and I was feeling A LOT better. We called the hospital to see if a decision had been made, but they said they hadn't seen the doctor yet and were waiting for his final approval. They called shortly after 9 to have us come and pick her up. We hurried as fast as we could so they couldn't change their minds. Here are the photos of Holly's last moments in the NICU.
So now our little Holly is home and we get to do all the feeding and changing, playing and loving our little girl!
