As we get one step closer...this was taken a couple of days ago.

Kaden and daddy are watching cartoons.
Kaden meets Cha-Cha (I think that is it's name) from the Rainforest Cafe. They served dinner one night at the RMH. Kaden was a little nervous at first, but then couldn't get enough of him (or her).

After getting her big girl crib.

Mommy holding Ava for the first time since before surgery.

Kaden sleeping with his sister's picture. He put her on the pillow and actually fell asleep next to her. Sweet.
As I walked in to check if Kaden had fallen alseep I noticed the picture next to his face. I asked my dad and Nate if they put the picture there, but they didn't. When I went to move the picture he actually still had a hold of it. I thought it was the cutest thing. He is so sweet, I almost felt bad for moving it.
After coming off of ECMO...daddy is cheering her on.
Finally off of ECMO.


So here is the much needed picture updates. As you can tell Ava seems to be progressing quite well. She is starting to look so much older already....I know she is only 7 weeks, but I just can't believe how much she has changed already. I can so see me in her more than her daddy...but Kaden I think takes after daddy so it's only fair.

Kaden and I are home. It was actually kind of weird coming home...I kind of forgot exactly what it looked like, or something...I don't know how to explain it. It feels good being here, but I miss my baby girl already. I just can not wait for the four of us to be home together. I am so looking forward to that day. Hopefully not too much longer.
