Claire made it home yesterday! We are so, so glad she's back home with us.
I won't go into all the details, but Claire started feeling sick on Saturday. I took her to the doctor, and she was admitted to the Children's Hospital at Palmetto Richland. After many tests, the doctors determined that she had intussusception, which required surgery . . . . at 3 AM Sunday morning. Claire was a trooper and did amazing. Thank you to everyone who prayed for Claire. And thank you to our families for taking care of our family while Claire had a "staycation" at the hospital. Here are a few pictures of her stay.
This was the day she was admitted. She was pretty pitiful.
Getting some lovin' from Daddy.
This was taken a day after her surgery. Poor thing was so puffy from the fluids, she looked like a little marshmallow.
Sitting up like a big girl!
My home-away-from-home. It wasn't the most comfortable bed, but I was 5 feet from Claire's crib. And that's all that matters :-)
Surprise visit from Jules! I wish I had taken a video of Claire when she saw Julianne for the first time. Claire started squealing and waiving her hands up and down. It was precious.

I am so thankful that prayers were answered and "Claire-Bear" is doing so well. Thanks for posting these pics. I especially love the video and the pic of Julianne and Claire--so sweet.
