Three Weeks Old

And an Awesome Day!!! We are getting to do 'care by parent' tonight. We get to keep Emilee in our room except when we take her to the nursery for her nurse to do her assessment. The nurse said that she would be in every few hours to check on her (and us). We can let them keep her in the nursery at any time during the night if we want to rest, but no way are we giving her up after waiting three weeks to hold her at will. =) We had to take her to the nursery for her bath and weight. She gained again. YAY!!! She is 8lbs even. That's so exciting.

Here is her in our room, she looks like she is in jail
