Connor's Homecoming!!!!

CONNOR CAME HOME TODAY! No more trips to the NICU everyday, no more rushing breast milk to him, no more cuddling him in a hard wooden rocker, no more phone calls in the middle of the night to check on him, and FINALLY the boys can be together. I have to say, that I will definitely miss all the nurses though. They all took excellent care of our boys, and it helped me not worry about them! They are just as happy as we are that he got to come home today...it's time! He was discharged weighing in at 8 lbs 14 oz!!!

Connor's very last picture in his NICU bed...which he almost outgrew!
Connor being mad at me for putting on his monitor. Eventhough he went one whole week without an any apnea spells, he will still be on a monitor for a few months just to make sure! It's already gone off a few times at home, but his body immediately corrects itself...which is what it's supposed to do.
Connor in his car seat. He fits much better in it than Brandon did in his when he came home. He really doesn't need the blankets around his head, but I left them there just in case.

My parents, sisters, bro-in-laws, and nephew are on their way to NC this weekend and I CAN'T WAIT! Bridget is the only one who has seen the boys, but she hasn't held them both yet. This should be a fun weekend of family togetherness!
