Home At Last

We are finally home! We got home this morning and are so happy about it. The hospital had a biliblanket delivered to the house so we can do the phototherapy at home. It is so nice to be in our own home, take a shower in our own shower, sit somewhere other than in a bed, sleep in my own bed. Beckett is doing well. His levels have steadily declined. We have to take Beckett in for a blood test in the morning and he has to be on the biliblanket as much as possible until we are told otherwise. I will post some more pictures of our sweet little boy here in a little bit.

We are Still Here!!!!

Sorry to all those who are waiting for more pictures. We will put them up soon. We were supposed to be discharged today but here we still sit in room 3120. My doctor came by this morning and said everything was good to go home as far as me. Then the nurse came in and said that Beckett needs a bilirubin test because he was way too yellow. The pediatrician came by and confirmed that he has jaundice and that we might not be going home today. So after the blood tests came back high they decided he was not going to get enough phototherapy at home and needed to stay here for phototherapy. I have been officially discharged but Beckett has not. So Beckett and I are here for the night. Mike is going to head home and spend some Daddytime with Caiden. We will hopefully go home tomorrow morning and do phototherapy at home with Beckett. I will post when we do finally get home.

Quick Baby Update 6 AUG 08/ 1500

Just a quick update on Steph and Baby's status. We called to come into L&D at about 1am this morning. We've been here since and she's made concerderable progress. Her water has brokend so he will be here for sure, probably in the next 2-3 hours. Please remember Steph and Baby in your prayers as the tough part approaches. We will keep you all updated since our hospital room has wireless!

Love you All!
Mike, Steph, and Baby

Baby Beagley is Coming Soon!!!

Well we are here waiting for our sweet boy's arrival. We were supposed to be at Labor and Delivery this evening to be induced but they are full. So here we wait. Caiden is at Momma and Papa's house and Mike and I are enjoying the quietness of the house for the last time in awhile. We will hopefully get a call to go on in to L&D later this evening but until then we are relaxing at home. Hopefully, we will be able to announce our baby's arrival tomorrow but if you haven't heard from us, we are still waiting too!

Mike put some tattoos on Caiden's and my tummies on Sunday night. It was quited comical when my doctor looked at them on Monday and said those aren't real are they? Umm....No!!!

Baby Beagley's Nursery

We procrastinated big time on doing the baby's nursery. Oops!! My oldest (by that I mean longest lifelong friend, really she is just a month and 3 days older than I) Jen, came into town for my shower with her hubby and darling little girl. You know what she did on her vacation? Painted the nursery. It took us a long time to decide whether to do monkeys or trains in the baby's room and finally settled on trains. So it was taking a lot to even decide on paint. Mike out of ease and lack of time said he would paint an accent wall blue. Well that was not intricate enough for Jen. She decided to do plaid to match one of the many on the crib quilt. It turned out beautifully. She has way more patience than I. Jen, I love the baby's nursery! Thank you so much!!!

Here are some pictures of the wall she did. I will post more of the nursery soon!

A Hard Day at Work

We took a different way home for a couple days in a row and kept seeing signs for an open house at the fire station, totally something Caid would go for. We decided to take Caid for it. It was awesome!!! As we were parking, the Flight for Life helicopter was landing and there were lots of fire trucks for the kiddos to climb on and explore. The fire station went all out with food, a bounce house, jaws of life demonstrations, etc. Caid had a ball and it was so fun to see it.
