Hello sweet thing! We're not far now! Only a day or two and you'll be home with daddy and I!

Today gigi (mommy's mom) came with me to the hospital. I rocked you for about an hour and a half. We sang different Christmas carols and you had to tell us which song it was. :-) You did pretty good. There were a few in there that you didn't know. ;-)

After rocking you, I took your temperature and changed your diaper. You were quite gassy!

Daddy met us at the hospital later. Daddy and gigi gave you a bottle. Then, you fell asleep with gigi.

The eye doctor is coming to see you tomorrow for a follow up appointment. All the nurses say you're doing well, and your eye doesn't appear to be as red as last week. Usually, the eye doctor comes in the evening, after the night shift change (around 7:30-8pm). So, since we have to wait for the check up, we'll likely get to take you home tuesday morning. But, you never know .... maybe we'll get to bring you home at night! ;-)

Daddy and I have cleaned the house for you! We've done all your laundry, sterilized all your bottles, vacuumed, dusted .... we're all ready for you!

The nurses at the hospital went over some of the discharge items with daddy and I. Basically, we need to treat you like you're still in the hospital, especially with it being flu season .... limit the number of people over, no children around you, no one sick around you or us, everyone to wash their hands around you, and you can't travel except to the pediatrician's office. We're going to try our best to keep you safe!

Can't wait little one! You're so precious to daddy and I!

I love you so much!
