COMING HOME

I called Tuesday morning to see how Annie was doing and they said that she could come home. Hurray! After nine days in the hospital she is released to us. We are really nervous about her eating enough and staying warm. I guess you get the nervous butterflies whenever you bring home a new baby.
Having clothes on for the first time was different for her.
I think she prefers to be naked.

The car seat was way too big for this little lady.

Big Sister Riley was so excited to hold Annie.
Preston was shocked that Riley dared to touch Annie.


After seeing Riley hold Annie Preston decided he could do it too.

Wesley was as cozy holding Annie as she was in his arms.

The Kids had swimming lessons the next morning after bringing Annie home and everyone needed a turn to say goodbye.
Preston can't get enough of little sister.

Riley won't go anywhere without Annie.

Wesley won't admit it, but he wants to hold her and
be next to Annie as much as he can.


Baby Annie loves being home. She is our little sweetheart

Isn't it strange to bring one home so tiny? Everyone can't believe how small, but they just do as good as the big babies. Good luck with having her home and I am so glad the NICU was for only a short time.
