Big enough to control my blog!

Many people have wanted to know how big I am. Pictures can be misleading, so they wanted some kind of reference. Here I am with daddy's big mitt holding me. I have a LOT of growing to do!! 

They say I can go home once I consistently drink from a bottle. I am trying, but I get soooooo sleepy!! 

Here are my new diggs! I am now able to stay warm on my own, so I have been moved into a crib. I like it, but there are times in this noisy nursery that I miss the quiet sounds in the isolette!

I am trying to stay awake.... really.... YAWN!

No good! I had to give into the yawns! Oh well, all this sleep seems to be working! I am growing and beginning to look like a real person! 

More posts when I wake up!

Movin' on up!

Sabrina has been doing great! She is almost back to her birth weight and continues to grow. She looks more like a little person every day! We had a little battle with jaundice but we are now officially out of the spotlights. 

Community South is the place to be if you are a baby! Today there were three new additions to the special care nursery. Because of her seniority Sabrina was moved into a "suite" off the main room. She is really into her new digs! 

The big news is today we got the green light to try and bottle feed Sabrina. I wish I could say she took to it like a fish to water, but no such luck. She decided she would rather nap than eat! We will be right back at it tomorrow morning.

SHE IS HERE!!!!

Baby Barnes has arrived!!! She was born on June 13, 2008. At 34 weeks, it is a little sooner than expected. After tossing around a few different names we have decided on Sabrina Raine. She was 4 lbs 4 ozs and 18 inches at birth. Baby and mother are doing excellent!! Sabrina has wonderful color and is breathing on her own. We are hoping she can come home in the next couple weeks. (At least that will give us some time to complete the final touches we were planning to complete in the six weeks prior to her scheduled due date. Oh, like, buying a car seat and stroller!) But enough talk, here are some pics of our little girl!

Nursery

UPDATE!!! Pictures of the Nursery!

The nursery is done! (well, almost) The room is painted and the crib and changing table are together. There are just a few minor items we need to complete.
