Our Hospital Stay

We were spoiled with lots of lovely flowers

Sound asleep

She had her first hearing test this week - they put pads on her head and neck and little ear phones over her ears which play soft clicking sounds. The machine can then tell if her brain is registering the sound - all in her sleep - pretty amazing!!!


She passed both sides - YAY!

The food in the hospital was AMAZING. I got a new menu every day to order what I'd like.

Finally a pic of me with Genevieve :)

The hospital gave us a leaving dinner on our last night - champagne, an amazing salad, chicken with spinach wrapped in filo and.......

an amazing dessert! It was wonderful to toast our new baby together over such a lovely meal.

After bath time we got a photo in the hall - our little family of 3

A cute gift from my work mates - the flowers are made of socks, onesies, bibs, etc - sooooo cute!

Genevieve in our going home outfit that Daddy picked out

Getting her cute little pants on

Murray calmed her down after she ate so she'd be nice and sleepy for the car ride home

In her carseat - cutie pie

Hey - what are these things on my hands???

Snug as a bug

And we're ready to head home!!!!!!!!!!!!!
