Home At Last!

We FINALLY made it home with our little girl....hopefully we will not be going back to the hospital any time soon! I had my surgery on Wednesday morning and everything went great, and we were able to come home on Thursday evening. I have to say, this whole thing is one of the most difficult things I have ever gone through. My prayer is that no mother would ever have to go through that....and sadly I know that there are many that experience the same thing without adequate medical care.

We are so thankful to have been at East Cooper for this whole ordeal...the doctors and nurses were amazing and made a horrible situation so much better. The Lord truly showed us his mercy and grace by providing us with amazing medical care, family, and friends. Thanks so much for everyones prayers and encouragement. Already we are able to see the Lords presence in this situation.....He has truly used it to remind us of his unconditional love and grace.

We are definitely getting settled in at home and are kind of figuring out this whole baby thing. Emerson has her days and nights confused so we are a little tired, but she is so cute that we don't care. I am feeling better and better every day and am hopeful that I will recover quickly with little to no long term side affects. Garrett officially goes back to work tomorrow....we will see how Emerson and I hold up without him. He has been so wonderful to both us. Luckily my mom is here until Tuesday to help me out a little. Thanks again to everyone for all the love and support....we are so greatful! And finally.....here are some pics of our little angel. I still can't get over her cuteness!!!!
