...CHRISTOPHER CAME HOME!
Though it wasn't a very nice day outside - cold and wet - Christopher was content in his carseat and didn't fuss the whole way home.
He was welcomed home by:
Aunt Anna Leigh,
Uncle Silas,
and Nana (who promptly cuddled him close and sang him a lullaby).
After Daddy gave Christopher a tour of the house, Daddy, Mommy and Christopher rested on the couch.
Weighing in at 4lbs 12 oz, Christopher tried out Daddy and Mommy's bed...
...but decided his was a better fit.
Praise the Lord that the first part of this journey has come to an end. We're so thankful to all of you for the hours you have spent in prayer for us and our little man. God has blessed us with wonderful family and friends who have been a tremendous support over the last two months. As Christopher continues to grow, please keep him in your prayers. He came home on an apnea monitor and had two spells during his first afternoon home, but we've been clear since then. He has to have 30 days without a spell before we can send the machine back. As long as we're watching him during the day, he doesn't have to be hooked up to it - so mainly he's wearing it at night. The only time he's been put down was for the few hours he slept last night. We're trying hard to spoil him after all that time in a sterile box! :)
We love you all and will continue to keep you updated.
