Amelia Elizabeth was born on April 2, 2009 at 12:08 am. She finally made it home after a NICU stay of 335 days. We are so happy to finally be together as a family. Amelia has grown to be a very happy, joyful and social baby. We are thankful for all the people that worked together with Amelia to bring her home safely. Now the fun begins!

Missing Amelia
Yesterday I decided to stay home and not visit because I have a work project due next week and wanted to get a good solid chunk of it done so that I wasn't rushing around at the last minute. Todd decided to go up early to visit Amelia and stayed from about 2:30 to 11:00pm. She was awake nearly the entire time he was there. They sang songs, he held her, gave her a bath, read stories and played. OT came by and she took 5 ccs in a bottle. Much better than yesterday. She weighed 10 lbs. 6 oz. last night. Her fiO2 was very stable at nearly 45% the entire day. They have reduced her calorie intake to 20 calories from 23. Still trying to slow down her weight gain. She got her flu shot this morning. Both Todd and I plan to get one so we reduce the chance of spreading the flu to her.
