Just a quick update, Rachel and I are doing a little better than the last time I wrote. We've gotten one good night's rest, which does a world of good. We're still getting to see Christopher at least once a day, and I actually got in a load of laundry last night.
We've been both having some weird feelings about the little guy. The more time that he spends away from us, the harder it is to feel like he's really "ours." I know that's hard to explain, because we do love him intensely, love spending time with him, and are sad when he's away. But really, we don't get to spend much time bonding with him, and we've never just been together as a family by ourselves (and won't be until he finally comes home, at which point I will lock the doors to our house for 3 days and just stay there=)). I wonder how we will feel a week from now, two or three weeks from now, when we're still doing the same thing? It's like you think you know how you should be feeling, but you're not feeling it right then.
On a lighter note, I think I mentioned before that Rach and I taped a picture of us on the inside of Christopher's incubator so that he could always see his Mommy and Daddy. Well, Christopher thanked us yesterday when we were changing his diaper by peeing up over his bed and all over the picture on the side of the incubator. Not on the bed, not on his blankets, but really just all over the picture of Daddy and Mommy. I'm not quite sure what to think about that, I hope it's not a sign of things to come, although if Karma does exist then we may be in for a wild ride =)
Love to you all, and thanks for your support and prayers!!
