Leighton's 4 Week Birthday!

My mom (Grammy Tami), Me & Leighton

Wide-eyed Leighton Bo

Nap time with mom

My sister Emily with Leighton

So we've officially been in the hospital for 4 weeks now! Leighton is hanging on strong at a whopping 3 lbs 12 oz. She is really starting to think that she is a big girl too! She's still doing great, and we're getting pretty used to the hospital set-up. I think we will need to install noises, beeping, and alarms in her room at home. That is all she ever hears! She is so used to all the comotion.. I just hope she will be able to get along ok without them when we finally get to go home!

Rachael, I am so glad you found me!! It has been forever! Your little baby girl is so cute! I kinda know how you feel, I had my little girl 5 weeks early and she stayed in the hospital for 2 weeks. So I just KINDA know. It can be so hard and draining. But well worth it! I hope everything continues to go well with your little family!

Rach- Thanks for the comment. I am so glad that you found us. I had no idea that you had a blog, were pregnant, or even had a little one. What a little miracle. She is a doll. I am glad that things are going good for you guys. I hope that you can take your little one home soon. I love just being with my little girls. I will be checking in with your little family. Good luck!

Hi - I went to PVHS with Davis. I found your blog through the Weavers! Leighton is such a beautiful baby and I LOVE LOVE LOVE her name! What a little miracle she is! Congrats on moving into a crib. I hear that is a big step. Tell Davis hi and I hope you don't mind if I add your blog to mine. Congrats again on a beautiful little girl!
