Lydia came with us to the hospital while the girls finished up their last day of dance camp.
Then we went over to watch them perform the dance they had been working on. They are good little dancers!

Bath time!
Bath time! We've figured out things have changed in the hospital since we were here with Lydia. We had to be shown a demonstration of how to bathe Karisa. Honestly, this is our 4th child...if we don't know how to give baths by now we're in trouble! But it was still fun to see her get clean! She didn't like being cold and naked but as soon as it was shampoo time she relaxed!
Aunt Elayna and Avery...
Aunt Elayna and Avery came home and were a huge help to us. With all the back and forth from the hospital it was so great to have her here to help with the girls. And they loved being with Avery...it made us super excited for them to come back in August when we can REALLY have some fun!

Lydia's visit...
Karisa had the feeding tube replaced...this time in her nose. She usually gets really close to finishing her entire bottle. If she doesn't then she gets the rest of it through her tube.
The exciting news from today is that she is in clothes!!! Yahoo! That means we're that much closer to having her moved into an open crib (which is closer to coming home)! I got to dress her...which is no easy feat in an isolette!
Then she got a visit from Lydia...her VERY proud sister! She kept telling the nurses that she is "a big sister!" In fact, we were able to see one of the nurses who had taken care of Lydia quite a bit when she had been in the NICU. It was fun to talk with her and re-introduce her to Lydia! Those nurses are pretty amazing people!
She has the bottle all ready!
Poking...
touching softly...
I LOVE this picture!
hugging...
and kissing.
Karisa has a few sisters who can't wait to have her home.
Then she'll have more poking, touching, hugging, and kissing then she could ever want!
