Sorry I havent posted an update things have just been crazy.  Laela did come home on 8/8 after 119 days in the hospital.   We got home late that night and had to wait for the Oxygen people to get there and set us up and now there are O2 tanks everywhere in my house I sure hope we dont have a fire!   Laela is sweet as can be and we have been taking some time to get adjusted to the new sleep patterns and trying to keep Vi from hurting her and Vi poor thing she is so jealous she wants me to carry her everywhere but I cant carry the baby and her andshe gets upset and then she wants to sit in my lap while im rocking the baby which is kinda hard too but things are getting a bit easier.  I worked from home last week so I could be with her but had to go back to the office this week so that sucks but my mom is watching her so I know she is in good hands.

We went for her checkup on Monday and they tested her blood and of course it came back that her liver enzymes were elevalted and her platelets down so yesterday we spent the day at the hospital again getting more blood work and having an Ultrasound but they let us go hom thank gOD and we will have to go back to her ped on friday for more blood work and they are going to refer us to emory for the liver specialist there

As of yesterday she was 6 lbs 6 oz she has gotten so big!!!  She was able to leave the hospital on no meds at all shje just has to have a little bit of oxygen and thats it so I am very thankful but it looks like soon we will be back on the liver meds

YAY she is home!!!!  I was hoping that was what was going on.  How much oxygen is she on?  She will probably be off of it in no time.  They say sometimes it is hard to break them of it.  You have to post some more pictures of her so we can see how big she is getting!  Just wait she is going to thrive now that she is home!!!
