The road home from the hospital took 5 days, but we finally made it. It is a loonnnggg and extremely irritating story, which I will not go into at length. Let's just say there were some very needless tests done, which required incubation time, which meant Marsi could not leave the hospital. Then, when the time was almost up, they wanted to do more, which Rachel put her foot down, talked with the head Doctor of the unit, who agreed that additional testing was unnecessary.
We were able to put on a New Born outfit Rachel had bought for the occasion, that is the only time Marsi will be able to wear it, strapped her in her new car seat and came home!
At home, Marsi and Endrit had some good look in each other's eyes time. It is so fun to watch Endrit with his little girl. He has been hesitant to hold babies, but he has had no problem with his own, bonding has definitely happened.
Marsi was introduced to Dexter and Jimmie. Dexter is pretty nonchalant, but Jimmie is a little terrified and has been in hiding.
Endrit's parents were able to spend some time with Marsi. The looks on their faces tell the whole story, I don't need to say a thing. It's been great to be home. I'll be here for just a couple more days. It will be so hard to say goodbye. Later this week we will be moving to Missouri, for good. I don't know when the next time will be that I'll see and hold her. Rachel promises pictures.
