Anabelle one step closer to HOME!

Little Anabelle has been enjoying some tanning under bili lights for the last few days. Shelley was released from the hospital on Thursday (i think) and has been going back and forth to see and feed Anabelle. Her bili count needs to be below a 12, and this morning it was an 11.9! Right now she is off the lights and they will re-test her blood around 11 or 12. If she can maintain her count on her own she will get to come home today! If she really does get to come home, it will be around 3pm or so. Shelley was so excited she could actually able hold and nurse Anabelle as long as she wanted without a nurse timing her! (Shel would only have a limited time to try and feed her then she had to get back under the lights. If Shel wasn't there right on time the nurses would give her a bottle to keep her on a very tight schedule) When the nurse told her she didn't have a time limit she started crying :) She has enjoyed getting a night or two of peaceful sleep, but is more than ready to have both her girls at home, all the time! She wanted to thank everyone for their love and being so concerned about them and little Anabelle! Hopefully we will have some coming home pictures today!
