Home at last

We came home from the hospital!!

Here is a picture of our little guy in his car seat, getting his hospital tags cut off.

We came home yesterday afternoon and its starting to sink in that this is real. I didn’t get to post last night because we had visits from two different home health agencies (Kiddo is on oxygen, and has to have IV antibiotics every 12 hours), so life got a bit harried.

You can’t see it in this picture, but Kiddo has an IV port coming out the top of his head. It looks kind of pitiful, actually. Here is another picture.

Anyway, mom and son are both doing well. We are having a great time together. We go back to the pediatrician tomorrow to get an update on Kiddo’s pneumonia and lungs. I’ll let you know what happens.

Thanks for your thoughts and prayers. They are working.

He looks beautiful- that the good Lord for modern medicine.

If it's any consolation, even when you have a first baby without medical concerns, it still feels unreal for a while...

My thought that I remember when our first was born was "You're letting us TAKE him? US?" it was sureal.

Modern Medicine is amazing.
