January 18, 2005 Early Tuesday morning at about 1:30am they gave me my final dose of antibiotics and then they took out my IV. It was so nice without all those cords. The pediatrician checked on me later in the morning and since all my tests came back fine and I was finally released. Mommy & Daddy put many layers of clothes on me and squeezed her into a car seat They wheeled me down and I got to see the outside world for the first time.

January 16, 2005 I had a fever on Sunday so that morning I had to have a few tests run on her including blood tests, urine tests and a spinal tap. I was also hooked up to an IV so they could run antibiotics into me. The test results take 2 days so they were just doing this to be safe. They never really found anything wrong but they just assume that I was just dehydrated. While I was in the nursery getting tests they ended up giving me formula though a bottle and I loved it.

At 11am Friday they decided to give me one more hour and if no change had occured they'd do a c-section. Nothing changed so Mom was prepped for surgery.
I was born at 12:26pm on 01/14/05, weighted 7 lbs 10 oz, and was 19 1/2 inches long.
