She loves hearing her mom and dad speak to her.
Kaidance on her birthday, only about 4 hours after she was born.
Just thought I would quickly update everyone! Eric and I had our beautiful baby GIRL on November 2nd, 2009 at 1:27 pm. She weighed seven lbs and six oz. She is 19 inches long. She is the most beautiful person in the world. We had a hard time deciding on her name, but chose to name her Kaidance Khloe Britt.
I am not going to go into much detail here, but I went into Labor on my own on Sunday. We finally went into the hospital on Sunday night at midnight. She did really well. While in Labor, though, I had a fever of 103. That was rough, but then it turned out that I probably passed some sort of an infection to her. She was admitted the the NICU for sepsis (blood infection) on the 3rd. She is doing well, and her infection lab levels are coming down. Now we are struggling with her bili levels, so onward and upward. She is sure one strong little girl. It is so HARD to see her be sick and get poked. I never imagined how hard it would be to have my baby as a patient. You would think that because I work in the health care field I would be better, but it has been the hardest thing in the world for me. Eric has truly been my rock, (along with my amazing family and friends). Hopefully she will get to come home soon, but as for now, she is in the good hands of some really good nurses.
Keep her in your thoughts and prayers. We hope to bring her home as soon as possible. These are just a few pictures for now, hope you enjoy them.

Congrats!!! She's beautifull. I hope she gets to come home soon. Rylie was in the NICU for about 6 days after she's was born. It was so hard especially once I was released. I didn't want to leave without her coming with me. Stay strong...it's all worth it. Just take it day by day. Every improvement she makes is a good day. Good luck! She's in our prayers.

Congrats to you!!! She looks like a cutie! Sorry she is having a rocky start, hopefully she will be home in no time!! I agree with you, even though I'm in the healthcare field, it is still extra hard to see my own kiddos when they are sick and have to get poked. Good luck with everything!!!
