33, Yipee!!

Yesterday I hit 33 weeks for this pregnancy. AMAZING!! Honestly I never thought I would make it this far, and after talking seriously with some family and close friends nobody else thought I would either. Well, :0P to everyone, including myself.

33 weeks was a major milestone for Julianna too. When Joe and I got to the NICU on February 26, 2008 (2 yrs ago today) Julianna was no longer in an isolette. She was in an open crib AND was wearing clothes for the first time. It was a huge deal. She no longer needed oxygen and the only tubes and wires she still had were her feeding tube and her monitor leads. It was the first time we had ever held her like a newborn (not kangaroo-ing). It was also during her 33rd week that both of her grandma's got to hold her for the very first time.

Week 33 was (and is) amazing for both of our kiddos, just for very different reasons.
