Merry Christmas!

Couldn't get a good one without the pacifier

Her cheeks are getting chubby!

Skyler's Crib

After all of Josh's hard work on the crib we are finally able to put it to use. Skyler is so tiny, but she looks even smaller in the crib!

Bundled Up

We got Skyler all bundled up and headed out to the outpatient lab to get her bilirubin levels tested this morning. Unfortunately, her pediatrician didn't call us back with the results until after 6pm, so Skyler spent all day under the phototherapy lights. When the doctor did call, he said her bilirubin levels were low enough that we could stop the light therapy. Thank goodness, because last night was one LONG night!

She's Home!

Skyler is finally home from the hospital! They were going to release her yesterday, but discovered her bilirubin levels were too high and they had to put her under the lights for Jaundice again. Her levels were low enough today to let her come home, but we have to do light therapy with her at home and will get her bilirubin levels tested again in the morning.

Ready to go home!

The hospital sent someone to our home to bring us these lights - we have to leave her in here all the time, except for when we are feeding her. Hopefully tomorrow her bilirubin levels will have dropped enough to allow us to stop the light therapy.

Pictures of Skyler

We haven't taken a ton of pictures of Skyler yet. The area in the NICU that they have her in is kind of dark and they don't allow you to use the flash on your camera. The pictures we have taken aren't the best, but here are some of the ones we have of her.

Under the lights for Jaundice

I arrived at the hospital the other day to find Skyler dressed and ready for the day
