We've braved the first few days with Madison home!  We haven't got much sleep, but this is much better than going to the hospital everyday!!  She is doing really well.  After some initial curiosity, our 2 dogs, Rusty and Cooper have adjusted to having a new little sister.  Today we take her to a doctor's appointment for an eye exam (routine).  That's about it for now.  Here's some more recent picks of Madison getting ready to head home in her car seat, and some other pics from our home.  Enjoy!

MADISON IS COMING HOME TODAY!!!!

Finally, after exactly 8 weeks of being at the hospital, Madison is scheduled to come home this afternoon!!!  It's been a long journey filled will lots of ups and downs, but in the end Maddie pulled through it all like a true champion.  We are very proud of her and are soooooo excited to finally have her in our own home.  All of the doctors have been very pleased by her progress--so much so that they are allowing her to leave at the very earliest age they possibly allow for premies.   Ahhhh, no more tubes & montitors attached to her--no more traveling back and forth to the hospital everyday (it's 30 min. away).  It will be so nice just to have our little girl home with us.  We feel very blessed and lucky that everything turned out well.  We want to thank everyone again for their support throughout this difficult time.  Please continue to check this blog for more updates about her progress at home.  Also, in the near future, we will be announcing a new website which will contain information about Maddie (where she is registered, etc).  Thanks again everyone!
