The twins meet again & Caroline comes home!

Yesterday was full of excitement! Caroline met all the hospital requirements for discharge so she was released yesterday! She passed her car seat test on Monday night and took 8 bottles a day for a 48 hour period. She has been off caffeine for over a week and didn't have any drops in her vital signs so she was ready to come home. We are so proud of her!

She didn't mind sitting in her new seat for 90 minutes

We LOVE Nurse Vicky! One of our favorites!

We are ready to go see Claire!

And off we go!


Even more exciting than Caroline coming home was that the twins were able to finally see each other. They were separated at birth and haven't been in the same room since. Once Caroline was released we couldn't get down to Claire soon enough! Caroline was wide eyed but as soon as she was put into Claire's bed she closed her eyes and laid silently beside her sister.  When one would start to move or make noise the other did the same. It was an amazing thing to witness! I couldn't take enough pictures of the two of them together-enjoy!

Together at last!
