Can you turn it up one more notch please?
Well, Farrah had to be admitted to Memorial Hospital for 2 days because of her high levels of bilirubin. The high levels causes Jaundice and her level was at 18 and went all the way down to 10, so the Hospital discharged us. So now Farrah spends about 10 minutes in indirect sunlight with only her diaper on to help the jaundice go away. The sad part about being in the hospital was that Wes and I were not allowed to take her out from under the phototherapy lights. So when she cried we tried our best to comfort her by touching her arms or her back and talking softly to her.
I hated when the nurses had to put an IV in her little hand. Farrah cried so much and was so loud that I started to cry as well. I hate knowing she is going through anything painful. Wes seemed to handle things pretty well until Farrah cried for about an hour straight. He was so frustrated that he couldn't hold her to comfort her that he got upset and left the room to go walk off his frustrations.
Well, now we are back at home and everything is going well. She still has little bruises from her IV and her yellow tint has pretty much gone away. She is still as cute and precious as can be. I can't stop holding her and kissing her tiny little hands and feet and touching her cute soft face. Wes walks around the house with her in his Baby Bjorn, a back pack for holding babies. She has become a milk monger. She started out drinking only 2 ounces every couple hours and now she has worked her way up to 4 ounces. She is growing so fast. She has already started bouncing on her little legs when we hold her and when she is done feeding and waiting to be burped, she puts both arms up in the air. I love every moment with her.

Farrah Mai Fiona Agee!!!!!












Yeah!!! Farrah Mai Fiona Agee has finally arrived!!! We are soo excited and overwhelmed. We went in tuesday morning for a regular checkup. I had been dilated for 1 cm for the past two weeks, and I was hoping to have progressed. Well, the doctor checked and told me I was about 2 1/2 cm dilated and to go walking and come back around 4pm for another checkup. Of course I went straight to the gym with my husband, walked for two hours on the treadmill and then went home got cleaned up and went back to the doctor.

Well, we were certainly in for a surprise when we got to the doctor's. As soon as he checked me, my water broke scaring my husband and making my doctor jump back in surprise. He immediately sent me to the birthing center where I would be in labor for the next 17 1/2 -18 hours. So, from tuesday at 4:35pm to wednesday at 5am I was 3 cm and feeling strong contractions. Finally around 5:30am I decided for the epidural because I couldn't stop shaking from the pain. From 5:30am to 9am I had finally dilated to 10 cm and was ready to push. However, the epidural made my entire left side as dead as a log and my right side was wide awake and ready to go. Although I didn't feel any real pain, my husband said he felt it for me. How sweet. He coached me through the entire birth and was absolutely wonderful and still is. He is so helpful around the house and my mother has been here helping out the past few days. Thanks to everyone who came by and visited us while we were in the hospital. WE appreciate all the hugs and kisses, prayers and smiles.
