Carseat pictures - before and after

I was thinking the other day how much my little girl has grown, so I thought I'd share this....

I found some pictures that the nurses took with a disposable camera that we kept by Janai while she was in the NICU. One of the pictures was taken when Janai was having her carseat test (shortly before the doctors tell you that you baby is ready to go home, the nurse puts baby in the carseat for 30 minutes and checks how baby's heartbeat and breathing do - this is to make sure that the baby will be OK on the ride home). At the time of the carseat test, Janai had been in the NICU for almost 3 months and she weighed 6lbs. She came home two days after this picture.

Next, you'll see a picture I took on Dec27, a little over three months since Janai has been at home. She has grown so much! She's over twice the size as the first picture, and seven times bigger than when she was born. Thank God she is doing well! She's my very own living miracle!

  3. She is so cute and so happy to see her weight gain! We have pics of our LO in his carseat right after he came home before he could really fit into it and it's amazing to see him now.

  4. Just wanted to say hello and how amazing Janai looks. This is Britni Key...I had the identical twin girls Aug 3 that were in the NICU the same time as Janai. We all rode out Hurricane Ike together. She is absolutely precious and it is so good to hear how well she is doing. Our girls are doing great and our blog is at www.thekeygirls.com. We wish all of you a great year and hope that it doesn't go by too fast.

  5. Hey Lizet! I saw where you posted asking me what the toy was called..it's called Fisher Price Little Superstar Sing Along Stage
    She loves it and I think that Janai would like it too. Our OT recommended it, and boy was she right! Hope that helps! lisa
