rough starts
After a hard four days, Elise and Kimi and Ryan get to go home. Kimi went in for a c section Saturday because the baby was too big to be delivered naturally. (I apparently can grow "One healthy ambilical cord!") Elise went straight to the NICU because of breathing complications and low blood sugar. She had to stay in a oxygen tent that covered her face and kept the air she was breathing more oxygenated as she needed it. She looked like a little astronaut in training. We weren't for sure that she would be able to come home with Kimi because after she was taken off her IV's for her low blood sugar she kind of jaundiced a bit. We get to take her home but we have an appointment tomorrow to see if she needs the baby tanning bed. Oh well, at least she got to come home! We were very excited. Here's a picture of her enjoying her ride home.

Oh Kimi, I am so glad you went with the C-Section! I had a 8.10 baby and I thought she killed me! I am so glad everything is going well now. Congrats and enjoy your little one.
So cute! And wow, thank goodness for hospitals and that they know about oxygen tents and such. I'm glad she is home now.
She has hair too! Wow so fun. Kimi, take it easy on your recovery. She looks like both of you.
