Maisie's homecoming

Daddy's sleepover went well although Daddy didn't get as much sleep as he'd have liked to. Maisie makes a lot of noises when she is sleeping which sound like she could be awake however she isn't - this is normal for premature babies but not normal for Daddy to hear.

It was an emotional day. Every one has been through so much in the last few months and there were many times that it was thought that Maisie wouldn't get home. Yet here we are Maisie's Homecoming. There have been a lot tearful moments - with today shedding more than average (including Daddy).

There were so many kind messages regarding today starting with the likes of; Hurrah, Whoopee, Whoo hoo, we just think that it's AMAZING.

a beautiful day to be leaving

We will miss all Maisie's "Aunties" at the Victoria Hospital who have helped us every step of the way through this ordeal. We don't know how we would have got though without their kindness and support. We will never forget all the love and attention they gave Maisie and as she grows up we will make sure Maisie knows this.

Maisie with the family at home - at last! 

The next step of Maisie's journey is starting. Surrounded by the continued love of her family will give her a fantastic foundation for the future. Tomorrow there will be visits from the Health Visitor and Community Nurse to help guide us along.

We are looking forward to all the friends and family who are planning to visit. Please remember that Maisie is   at great risk from getting an infection so if you are not feeling 100% please stay away. Do not be offended if you are turned away - we just have Maisie's health to think about.

And don't worry the blog will continue to keep you up to date with.................... 

My Amazing Maisie!
