Gabi is Home

I woke up late this morning, 8:15. Church starts at 9:00. So I knew I was going to be late. It was my first Sunday back, so I guess it is okay to phase back in a little at a time. (Just kidding - I'll be better.) Anyway I got a phone call at about 9:00 from the charge nurse in the nursery at the hospital. She said that while we had planned on bringing Gabi home tomorrow, she felt that Gabi was doing so well it was okay for her to come home today. Yay! So after church we put Rachel down for a nap and I went to the hospital for the last time (more or less), and brought our new baby home. They gave me all kinds of instructions, and sent us on our way.

Rachel was awake by the time we got home (thanks a lot Scout), and she seems to like Gabi a lot. She wanted to hold her and kiss her. Gabi had the foresight to pave the way by bringing Rachel a present from the hospital. Gabi gave Rachel her own little baby doll.

Noelle, I'm glad she's finally home! Rachel looks like a loving older sister and Gabi is so cute!
