Glorious

Yesterday was a glorious day! Happy Mother's Day!

I took this picture of mom doing TKM on Jimmie during my last visit to see him at the hospital on Friday. I had to share that dimple.

Driving Home



Jimmie is happy to be going home!



Home Sweet Home.



Jimmie's room- a work in progress.







Jimmie in Mom's(Ma EuDaly)arms.



Justin putting the swing together.




Cole sitting in cousin Jimmie's chair.


Grandma Kathy cooking- YUM!


Grandpa Rod holding Jimmie for the first time.





Grandpa and Grandma Gravitt love that boy!



Kathy holding Jimmie.






Jimmie loves being at home. He is eating better than he ever has before. Rachael only slept 1 hour for worry that he would pull his oxygen cannula out in the night. Pray for her to work out details like that so she can rest in peace.

What a victorious Mother's Day it is for Rachael. Thank you Father!

Love,
Amber

  9. i am so so so happy for you guys! and, rachael, you will literally drive yourself crazy worrying about the cannula. i just got to the point where i was like, if she pulls it off, i will put it back in when i feed her, most of the time she pulls it out to where it is just sitting on her lip, so rest assured he will still be getting some air, it just won't be right in his nose..still better than nothing! hopefully he won't be on it too long. Maddy has had it for almost 6 weeks now, and you get used to it! i am so glad that you can finally start your lives with Jimmie at home! Praise GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It is so wonderful to see Jimmie at home. I am sure things will settle soon and you will get a mommy jimmie routine. Just enjoy every moment. I am sure he loved the fresh air and sunlight, if nothing else that will help his little spirits! I cant wait to see him and squeeze the little baby juices out of him (but I will...wait)
    We love ya, and rejoice with you
    Natalie and the boys!
