Countdown to Coming Home

Gracie will come home tomorrow... Kim and Greg will be completely gray by Friday. Gracie had her car seat study done today (see pics below). We basically had her in the car seat for 30 minutes and they monitor her to make sure she can breath without any problems. She did very well, sleeping through the entire test. She passed her hearing screen last night and will have a vision screen tomorrow before she is discharged. She is taking her feeds when ever she wants now and is taking about 60 ccs (2 ozs.) every 3 hours. She is 4 lbs. 14 ozs. and 18 inches long.

Below is another picture of a wonderful nurse named Marion who has taken care of Gracie a lot over the past few weeks. Marion and Danielle like to poke fun at me and want to teach Olivia to do it when we go home and they can not harass me anymore.

Gracie has a bed all ready for her in our room (picture below). Below, Olivia is showing Ram his new place to sleep since Gracie is getting his spot in our room =). The other picture is Olivia and Sophia cleaning up to prepare for Gracie's arrival. As soon as we can we will get some more pictures of her that do not include hospital cribs, sheets, tubes, etc.
