4 Weeks

At 4 weeks (7/18/12):

This was a rough week for our family...

On Wednesday (7/11) Mommy was still stuck in bed feeling bad with mastitis. The babies got to hang out with Gigi all day!

On Thursday (7/12) Mommy started feeling so much better. Gigi and Mommy took you both to Aunt Bo's condo to clean it for her. Aunt Bo works about 100 hours a week and is never home. Both babies slept on Bo's bed while I organized all of Bo's jewelry. Bo was able to come home for dinner (she had to go back to work afterwards) and Daddy stopped by after work and we walked over to Brixx and enjoyed a meal out!

On Friday (7/13) Gigi headed back to Atlanta and we all hung out around the house all day waiting for Daddy to come home. We also got rid of your preemie bottles since you all are taking 3oz now and those bottles were only 2oz!

On Saturday (7/14) Mommy started to feel sick and had to go back to the hospital. Daddy packed everyone up and dropped Mommy off. It was one of the hardest nights I've ever had being away from the babies. I kept hearing babies cry and would like about my babies at home. Gran drove to Charlotte to spend the night and help Daddy out.
I'm a hard stick and unfortunately got my iv close to my arm pit!



On Sunday (7/15) Poppy arrived early in the morning to help Daddy out. You both enjoyed spending time with him. According to your Dad, Poppy walked you around the house and told you stories of all the hard work he and your Daddy did updating our home. Holden felt ice for the first time and both of you got fist fulls of Boomer fur! That afternoon, Gigi came to the hospital to hang out with me for a little bit. Daddy brought you to the hospital that evening and I LOVED seeing you! The nurses were all excited to see you! They had helped me out when I was in the hospital while pregnant with you and had fun seeing you on the outside. I got to feed you your 9pm bottles before Gigi and Daddy took you back home.

so thankful to see my babies!


On Monday (7/16) I was still in the hospital and you got to hang out with Gigi. You met Gigi's friend Kate and had fun hanging out. Gigi brought you to the hospital and I was able to breastfeed you a bit and snuggle with my babies. 
Really rough picture but remembering my time in the hospital and my sweet babies that came to visit.




On Tuesday (7/17) I was feeling sooo much better and ready to be released from the hospital. Your Gigi had to be back in Atlanta to show her house at 4pm so we were in a mad rush to get everything done! It was a bit of a crazy day! I had a great nurse that got my doctor to release me early and helped us get out of the hospital by 11am. Gigi had a doctor's appointment at 11:10 that was on the hospital campus so we loaded all of Mommy's stuff up and rushed through the hospital to get Gigi there in time. Immediately after her appointment she had to drop us off at home and head back to Atlanta. It was hard to see her go and I was nervous to be on my own with you babies again!
