My Baby is Home

I thought I would update on my daughter Aimee. If anyone remembers my original thread, my daughter was born at 29 weeks 5 days on September 5. After 62 days in the hospital (26 in the NICU and 36 in the special care nursery), she came home on Monday. 
This is hard to read but it says "Happy Two Month Birthday Aimee." The nurses made this for her and put it on her bassinet on Sunday.

In her bassinet. She's wearing a swaddle blanket. It's quite big on her so we will get a lot of use out of it.

My husbands mom bought her this hat the day she was born. She finally fits into it. 

How wonderful for you to have your precious bundle home at last. It must have been so difficult to be patient all this time, coupled with t he worry. Now you can learn to enjoy each other. She is a little darling.

Aww, congratulations!  I am so happy she is doing well and there's no place like home. 

She's an absolute little angel. Congratulations and so happy she is home and doing well. Just being home will probably add to her improvement. Send us more pictures.

She is a beautiful healthy looking baby.  I am so happy for you that she's home now.

Congratulations on having her home!! She looks fab!!! And being home will be great for you all

What a sweetheart! Welcome home Aimee!!!!
 

Awwwww!!!  Look how big she has gotten...but still so tiny!  I'm still using my swaddle blankets for DS and I loved them for DD.  I think we had the same one for DD too.  I love not having to swaddle the old fashion way!

Enjoy being home as a family!!

So wonderful to see her at home.  Love the kitty snuggie she is wearing.

YAY she's HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh she looks WONDERFUL - and that hat is GREAT! :lol3: Oh, I'm just SO HAPPY for your family - now a family, at home, together. :heart2:

Thanks everyone. It's been so nice having her home, even if I am exhausted.   Waking up every 3 hours is really hard. I get about 2 hours of sleep at a time. I'm sure I will get used to it, I've only been doing it for 8 days so far (I stayed for 6 at the hospital before she came home).

We just used it for the first time last night. It is so much easier. She's been using it pretty much all day today. I keep her swaddled or wrapped up in blankets most of the day because she is still so small and she gets cold easily. 

Such good news!!! She's adorable! Congratulations Mommy and Daddy for having your Princess home at last!
 

I am so happy for your family now that its newest member is finally home. She is a beautiful little girl, and seems none the worse for a little rough start in life. She looks amazingly alert for such a young one. It took almost a month to get my first granddaughter to open her eyes for a picture.

That's great news, and she's absolutely adorable!

She's truly a little sweetie and I'm so glad you finally got that little girl home where she belongs.

Love the little cap! Yep, she's a sweetie!

That's fantastic! She's such a little dollbaby! :love:

She absolutely adorable and has the cutest little face.  I'm glad she's finally home.

I'm glad to hear your precious baby is ok and is now at home, cute baby.
 

We did Aimee's newborn photos today. We got this one as a teaser already. 

An angel, that is what she is.  Fur babies are fun.  But you got the real thing here.  What a blessing.
