We were surprised as can be when the Dr. called last night and said that he thought Ella may do better at home. He still had to check with the other "board" of doctors today since she still wasn't eating the required amount but he was thinking sometime this week. Well at noon today we got the call to come pick her up anytime. We were soooo excited! So my mom came over to watch Mr. Slade (thanks for all you do mom) and we headed to the hospital. It has been an uneventful afternoon and evening thus far and so far Ella is already eating more than she was in the hospital. Yeah Ella!Just one baby to go and we are very hopeful that she will be home in the next week or so. Although we are sure to be exhausted, we are so ready to have our whole family intact!
Here is a picture of the nurse walking us out down part of the NICU hill... Welcome home Miss Ella!
