Time Flies!

Yes, I know that it has been over a week and I apologize! So here is the update... Savannah Grace is doing wonderful. She is actually sleeping at night for 4 hour stretches which is very nice! She is such a sweet baby and it is funny because we know now why Lori complained all the time about Savannah kicking her inside the womb. Her arms and legs are very, very active. Diaper changing time is a tag team event. One to hold the legs and the other to change the diaper. We call it family time! Her little smile and grin definitely melts daddy's heart. Lori is doing great, just adjusting to the feeding schedule. She is an amazing mommy! Our life has definitely changed and only for the better. I went back to work on Monday and it was the toughest day I can remember. It is so hard to leave every morning! Savannah will be 2 weeks old tomorrow and time just continues to fly. We go to the pediatrician on Friday for her 2 week well visit. I know that I say this in every post, but it becomes more and more evident daily....God has truly blessed our lives with our little Savannah! We love you all and thanks for being a part of our lives!

What a beautiful day!

It has been quite a busy day today. Savannah had her check up with our pediatrician and he says that she looks wonderful! She has gained almost all her weight back and is now 7 lbs 4 oz. Her jaundice levels were down drastically from just Sunday, so all that sunbathing in the living room paid off!! She did have her 2nd PKU test performed today and it was hard to hear her scream when they pricked her heel. All is better now and dinner is served. Her little umbilical cord fell off about 10 minutes ago. Great moment so we don't have to keep rearranging her diaper around it, but not great enough that we feel we need to keep it for her babybook!! She is changing everyday in little ways and what joy she brings to our lives. God is good!

5 days old already!!

Savannah is 5 days old today! She had a rough night on Saturday night, just never wanting to sleep very long. She went for her 48 hour follow up with the pediatrician on Sunday morning and he said she looks great, other than a little jaundice. He wasn't concerned and we will visit him tomorrow afternoon just to make sure. Savannah will also get her 2nd PKU tomorrow afternoon. Don't think that will be very exciting! Mom and Dad Osuna are here until Wednesday afternoon, along with Lori's mom, Linda, coming to spend the days with Savannah. They have all 3 been a huge help in taking care of us this last week. We are so blessed to have them here!
Savannah had her 1st bath at home last night! Not sure how she felt about the audience watching every move! She had her Aunt Janice and Cousin Austin visit this morning. She just hangs out and looks around at everyone staring at her. No telling what she is thinking!! She seems to be changing everyday and what a joy it is to be able to witness her growth. Check back to see more pictures and updates!

Happy Birthday Savannah Grace!!

Well we have finally made it home! I wanted to post a couple of pictures before we head off to take a nap! Lori is doing wonderful and looks beautiful. Savannah enjoyed the ride home and just laid down for her 1st nap. God has truly blessed our lives and we praise him for our bundle of joy. Thank you all for your prayers, phone calls, emails and text messages. Hopefully you will all get to meet little Savannah very soon. Until then, I will continue to post more pictures for you to keep up with. We love you all!

Savannah continues to run out of room more and more each day!!

August Updates!!

We are just 6 days away! By this time next week Savannah will be here! Lori is wanting her to come now, as it is getting more and more uncomfortable each day. We will go on Monday to finalize the details for next Wednesday. If Savannah decides to hold out until Wednesday, Dr. Powell will induce on Wednesday morning. These are exciting times around our home and we are so excited about meeting our sweet baby girl! Please continue to lift us up in prayer, specifically for Lori and Savannah's safe delivery.
