After 28 days in the NICU-

We're finally home! They let us bring Luke home yesterday afternoon! We are thrilled. Ben finally got to meet his baby brother (not sure how much he really cares though, other than pointing out he has ears and a nose...). We did come home with caffeine and a monitor, a minor annoyance- but totally worth it. Turns out I actually DID sleep more when he was in the NICU though- I guess Luke is a night owl :) Luke also hit 6 pounds on new years eve! :) Here are some pics- enjoy!

What a wonderful way to start the new year- with your family at home! I am so happy for you, and I cannot believe how much Luke has changed already! One thing is for sure- he is a strong boy, you can tell just by looking at him.
