Coming Home From the hospital with Baby Kate *Updated*

Tonight we go home with our tiny sweet baby. Its bitter sweet because as much as I want to go home and see my other beautiful other kiddos, I feel so safe here in the hospital. I love it here, I am pampered, medication every 4 hours, food service, breast feeding consultant, I mean I think I saw angels above the building ...




As I was getting ready to go home, I started to feel very depressed. I haven't slept for 2 nights and I was so exhausted. How was I going to do it at home without all the extra stuff add 2 other babies?! As I sat in bed crying that I didn't want to go home, Jed came over and gave me a huge hug. He told me that we were going to be just fine and what a great mother I was. He also told me how proud of me he was, and how amazing I was.

Oh, I'm just crying while I write this, hormones, but it was just the perfect thing to say to me! Then he ended it perfectly by saying that he would be my room service for the next couple of weeks. =)


Look at that tiny baby? She looks even smaller in the car seat. When she was born she was 6.5 pounds, but by the time we left the hospital she lost 5 ounces poor little thing...my sweet tiny Kate!!


 .....one picture of us....then the nurse says, "Do you want a picture with the baby showing?" Umm..sure!! YIKES. Now WITH the baby! lol.....


 Sometimes I can't believe they let us go home with them being soo tiny!! Jed being the PROUD papa!



Our ride home, we were able to spend it alone with Kate. Bridger and Jocelyn were gonna stay one more night with their Grandma and Abulita. So Jed stopped by Koi and got some sushi for me. YES!! Finally after 9 months without! 

We came home and it felt GOOD! It felt so nice to be home with our baby. We snuggled into our own bed and ....were home.

I didn't miss the hospital one bit, and Jed has been so incredible during this the whole time. He has been so amazing to me and just the best man in the world. I am so lucky to have him as my husband. I love him so much!! He has been an amazing support to me, and I just can't think of anyone else I would love to spend eternity with. Cause honestly it doesn't feel like enough!!
