Our baby is back!

Thank you all for your prayers and encouragement to us while our baby was sick. We had a visit on Sunday from the home health nurse, who took her blood sample. We got a call a few hours later that her levels had basically been cut in half, and we can take her out from under the lights. I hung up the phone and ran to the light bed, turned it off, took the eye shields off and held my baby! Since then, she's gradually been more and more like a normal baby. No longer sleepy all day, she wakes when she's hungry and cries when she has tummy pains and keeps us up at night for no apparent reason! Yay!! Overall, she's a very easy baby. She is pretty easy to figure out. And I think we're figuring out this nursing thing, too! Here are some pictures of our little girl, in honor of her turning 1 week old yesterday.
