Our Beautiful Girls!

Cute feeties!

Haivyn looked at this picture and said "Wow, that's a big bow"! I laughed and agreed!

I do not love naked baby pictures, but I did let them talk me into doing this one!

Haivyn 4 years old

Brynlee 6 years old!

They have done better as big sisters than I ever expected!

Jaivery came right on schedule. My last day of work was Wednesday and I told everyone I would have her Thurs or Fri. Needless to say, my family all laughed at me. Sure enough, I was at the hospital Thursday night and she was born Friday morning. Although she was full-term, I was only 37 weeks. All my kiddo's are born at 37 weeks, big deal right? Well apparently Jaivery didn't like that. She didn't want to breathe. We started out with the oxygen "cake pan" (that's what it looks like to me!) thinking it was just retained fluid from delivery, and progressed to high flow 40% oxygen, I.V. fluids, antibiotics and eventually intubating and giving surfactant. What full-term baby has a surfactant deficiency? Mine. It's been a long go, but 3 days later, we're on our first night without oxygen and will hopefully finish up antibiotics in the morning and finally get to go home. So grateful for modern medicine! Where would we be without it? I will post more pictures when we get home! Wish us luck!!
