At Home and Two Weeks Old

We have had Riley home since Thursday and it is wonderful! By God's grace I haven't had the baby blues but on Thursday when we finally got to walk out of the hospital with him my eyes were full of tears. I have been praising God over and over for our little miracle and that he is home with us now.

I can't say I jump up and down at the 2am and 5am feedings but it is a joy to know he is home and doing pretty well. The last couple of days we have had good feedings and not so good. This morning he spit up everything I gave him which was discouraging and then he was hungry and hour later and his schedule is completely off...I guess he doesn't understand the idea of a schedule. :-)

Please continue to pray with us that he would keep his meals down and he would continue to maintain a great blood sugar level and gain weight. We have an appointment at the doctors office tomorrow so I will know how we are doing then.

My parents (aka Grandma and Grandpa Henry) arrive this evening from Iowa and I am really excited to have them here, to see our little guy in their arms and to spend the week with them.


Here is our little green bean once we got home from the NICU.
