I thought we would be preparing for Emma to come during our Christmas season this year, but that didn't quite work out :) Sooooo it's been a very busy time for our family between visits at the hospital, Thanksgiving, school, working, and decking the halls. We put up our tree this year and Lilly had a total blast! She woke Mike and I up and practically dragged us out of bed to go decorate the tree. I have a feeling this Christmas is going to be very magical for Lilly. We found this cute ornament for Lilly, since she is a big sister now! We've had a few opportunities to visit Emma during Thanksgiving break and she is now in an open air crib and learning how to suck on a bottle! She's growing and has made it to the 4lb mark! :) We can't wait to bring her home it's been hard being so far away from her. Lilly really can hardly wait to meet her little sister :) We are hopeful to bring her home by Christmas, she needs to learn to eat and breath on her own. She's almost there with breathing she's only on a small amount now.
Now that Emma is in an open air crib she can be swaddled and she LOVES it! When we go and visit the nurses let me change her diaper and try to feed her and whenever I take off her blankets she gets so upset :) she wants to be warm and snuggled :) as soon as I wrap her back up she falls back asleep.
