We has a great nnight last night. She ate every three hours & then went right back to sleep after each feeding. What a blessing that was!
I have to say that there is one thing I will really miss about the hospital. Having Anna Grace hooked up to the monitors (now that I have gotten used to the sound of them) has made me sleep easier. What I mean is, when Zachary was a baby when he would sleep soundly, I would wonder if he was OK. So I would queitly go into his rooom and listen to hear his breathing. Sometimes I couldn't hear it so I would lean down and see if I could feel his breath. When I couldn't tell I would gently disturb him and then he would move (so I knew he was OK) and then I would have to soothe him to get him back to sleep. With Anna Grace, I can just curl up on the sofa next to her bed and know that she is breathing fine because if she wasn't then every beeping buzzer and alarm would be soundly loudly and nurses would be running in the room. So, once we get home there will be no monitors and I will probably find myself creeping into her room in the middle of the night to check to see if she is breathing. I know I'm not the only Mom to do this :) So, I will miss the monitors - I never thought I would be saying that!
Life with a new born is quite an adventure. Thank you Lord for my sweet baby girl!

I still creep in to check on Abigail's breathing.. and to watch her sleep. So peaceful. Dude, get one of the monitors with a camera on it... that's what we have, and it makes it sooo much nicer at 2am. You just reach over look at the screen and there she is... the mic on those things are really sensitive. Glad your angel is doing well!
