Great news!!!! Our little guy is home. Collin came home yesterday evening. Just another example of things changing at the last minute. We took the girls to their first pediatrician appointment. All went well. We then headed up to the hospital to see Collin and to get all of their pictures taken together. It was too cute. We were informed on Thursday to go ahead and schedule Collin's pediatrician follow-up appointment mid to late this week so we did. However, when we got to the hospital they informed us that he would be going home tomorrow (today) sometime in the morning or afternoon. We were really excited about that because it was a whole day sooner than what we thought. We got back from getting the kids pictures taken and they came by again and informed us that he would be going home that day (yesterday). They felt that since we were already there, why not take him home. They didn't feel like keeping him for another 12 hours would make a difference. The only thing keeping him was him feeding orally and he was doing excellent. They got the discharge papers together and we were off in the van with our sweet Collin. It was the greatest day to have all of them in the van with us to go home. Collin gets to be with his sisters finally. Dad had to make one stop before we went home, well two, but one wasn't too significant. Dad had to stop on Dunkin Donuts. Hmmm. He says he is eating them for the kids and I say, "Why don't you let me eat them then?". I think Dad is playing with us. He really is eating them for himself.
Anyway, the night was great. Collin sleeps very peacefully so it wasn't too much different in that regard. Just one more mouth to feed and another sweet cheek to kiss on. The kids have really enjoy their swings a lot. We are just wondering what else we can possibly fit in our living room. We are outgrowing our house but it has been great.
Well, I am sure it has been a shock for everyone, including us, finding out Collin was coming home yesterday. We thank all of you for the prayers and support. Please continue to pray for their growth & development as they start their life at home.
Thanks again:-) We'll continue to keep you posted and we will keep the pictures coming.
