Homecoming
















We finally got to bring our dear boy home yesterday! 3 weeks and 2 days after he was born, Ryan got to come to his own home and be with the entire family - dogs included! Thursday night dad and Jeff brought all 3 kids up to see me and Ryan. It was a great visit and each child got to hold him. They were all excited to know that the end of our saga. I think I had really not given them enough credit for hanging in while mommy & daddy were gone so much. My dad really stepped in and handled so much of our everyday lives for us, so the kids wouldn't feel too displaced by the whole situation. Overall, I think it went as smoothly as it could have.
Fri. Ryan was circumcised (poor boy) and then after another full once-over, we were sent on our merry way, with a clean bill of health. He is now considered "general population" with no more risk for any disease/asthma/etc than any other infant. Praise God!
