Like labor, its become a game of hurry up and wait.
Chrissy is off the IV. She will probably go home tomorrow. Kaitlyn may be here a couple days longer. The NICU is like the Navy SEALs, only the best get through. She needs to get up to their standards and their standards are based on kids that are in serious trouble to begin with. My kid is being held to a higher standard, I'm okay with that, she'll kick butt and take names while walking on water.
Friends and family are a huge help. I know why she's in the NICU and its not for the worst of reasons. The hardest part is that there's no instant gratification for Chrissy. But, I see the way Chrissy lights up around you all and it makes me less worried about her. Kaitlyn's got her own nurse, Chrissy's got everyone else. Thank you all for everything.
As for me, I got my sleep, my girls are alright, and I got a beer with Paul tonight. What more can a guy ask for?
