Home SWEET Home!

We're home! We left the hospital around 10 this morning, finally! The car ride home was pretty uneventful, slept peacefully for most of it...screamed at us for the other part of it :) He was getting pretty hungry and downed his bottle as soon as we got home. Grandma and Grandpa Bode were already here to hang out with Connor, and Uncle Aaron greeted us home and helped us unload the car. Grandma and Grandpa Loula are on there way tonight as well. Lots of family love today :)

We are SO thrilled to be home, and as many of you know I named our rental the 'ghetto', it's certainly 'perfect' right now!


I can't say thanks enough to everyone that was supporting us this past week and a half, it certainly was crazy, emotional, hard, but the joy of having him home is helping us to forget it all already :) (okay..maybe still not the labor part....)


One last shot of his home, room 23-4 in the NICU, thanks to those who contributed to the toys in his bed and the toys and balloons on the shelf!



Bryan, watch out for your finger in the camera...okay, so maybe the camera was poorly designed. Just hanging out waiting to be dishcharged this morning.


Bryan was trying to get him to hold the bottle himself already. Patience, Bryan.

His studly duds from Grandma Loula for his homecoming.


Trying out his new toys

Congrats on getting the little man home safe and sound! We'll have to plan a trip down soon :) The new house is coming along splendidly. I'll be down to help move because apparently I'm super strong! Love you lots, Rach G.
