Home Sweet Home

It is sooo wonderful to be all home with no trips to the hospital! Byron is finally feeling well enough that he is holding his son. He put himself on a self imposed hiatus until he got better. Don't know if I told you, but Kean has weaned himself off the breast. He will only take a bottle. So I'm still pumping. But there is a very bright side to that, Holland, Byron and my mom can all take turns feeding him.

I'm sure its very difficult to tell from these photos (where are the smiles?), but we are all happy to have him finally home. We weren't sure we'd ever see these days. What a long, amazing journey. We have grown so much as a family and will forever love and adore all of you for all of your support.

I have to mention, Holland was given the assignment in school to build an "insulation" box, one that will keep an ice cube from melting. Holland came home and we discussed some ideas, then she went down to Grandpa Bodily's house for some advice. He's a retired engineer. A half hour later, they come back with the box built. They did this the day before we brought Kean home from the hospital. I love that man! He saved me!

They put a little compartment for the ice cube to sit inside of a box full of foam. And guess who won for her class? Holland-- her ice cube kept its solid form the longest. So here's the winning duo with the winning entry!

Holland proudly informed me, she sawed the foam and everything. Cool, eh?
