My return!
« on: Mar 24th, 2005, 6:28pm »		 Quote Quote Modify Modify
It is so good to be back! I have missed being on the boards, but as I am sure most of you know, I've had a very small baby to care for.  Cheesy
 
Sydney Grace (and what a grace from God she is) came home a little over a week ago after a two week stay in the hospital. She is doing so well! Although she may be a preemie, her heart is full size for a baby born full term. She is currently weighing in at 3 lbs. 6 oz. and is currently taking a nap right next to me. This little girl has so much love surrounding her constantly that it is a wonder she hasn't walked out already!  Grin  
 
Jonathan and I are doing well too. Although Ian will forever be in our hearts, we have begun to move on and concentrate on raising Sydney. Surprisingly, I am not nearly as tired as I thought I would be. I feed her every 4 hours, but she takes well to it. When she is hungry she only lets out one cry until I can get there. Same with when she has a wet diaper. She really is a blessing, and Jonathan is amazing as well. He tries to get home from the hospital as soon as he can and shower so he can help me out. His mom is also over here a lot helping with keeping the house in order. I just feel so blessed to have these people around me and helping me. I am just so grateful everyday for this baby. She has truly changed our lives.
 
I pray you all are doing well, and I thank you all for your love and concern! I am also keeping Rhune in my prayers and would love to hear any updates on how she is doing. I read a little bit on her thread, but I didn't get to read the whole thing.  
 
Thank you all so much!

it's so great that you MIL can help keeping the house in order.  That really helps you focus on caring for your sweet daughter.  WELCOME BACK.  But really you were always here in our hearts.  I am so happy little Sydney is home and she is so blessed to have such caring and wonderful parents.

WELCOME BACK!  I'm so glad you to hear from you and know that all is going well for your family now.    How wonderful to have willling, loving help.  No doubt you treasure your MIL.  Little Grace will grow and thrive with all the care and love she is receiving with such a loving family.
 
Don't stay away too long, for we need to hear how all of you are doing.
Keep us posted on her growth chart as well.
 
As for Rhune, if she doesn't go int labor by March 30, she will be induced.
The baby weighs around 9 lbs now.  
 
Take care and we'll chat again soon Kiss

It's good to see you back Rachel.  I am sure being a mother will limit your time here, but i think that's worth it right? Smiley  Congratulations on your beautiful (for i am sure she is) daughter.
 
If you ever get a little picture of her, i am sure a lot of people are dying to see her!!  (who can resist a beautiful baby??)
