Finally Meeting





It has been quite difficult for Garon and Brisa to not being able to meet their baby brother. It was a happy occasion when they were able to finally get their hands on him.
(I am going to have my hands full, wish me luck)

"I'm going home"


He's home....OH happy day
It is quite interesting bringing home a baby with oxygen tanks and cords, but we are hoping that he will not require it more then a week. We thank everyone for their loving words and concern. It has been quite a week, and I am glad that it is over. Now it is going to be fun to try to get into the swing of things with 3 kids ( one still being connected to cords).

Still in NICU...One week old

Truper is still in the NICU, but all the nurses have said that he doesn't look like a baby that needs to be there. He is off everything, but his oxygen. We are still waiting to hear from the doctor to see if he will let him come home with oxygen because he is borderline on the amount that is required of oxygen. Room air is 21%, he is about 28%-30% with oxygen. SO CLOSE!!!! If the doctor does let him come home with oxygen he will have a monitor as well as a home health person will come and check on him periodically. I am alittle torn, because eventhough I want him home and beable to have some type of normalcy, I don't want to push it and have him have to go back. We will just have to see what the doctors think.

Other then that, we are making it. The kids seem to be taking everything in stride. They are doing great. I try to make sure that they are getting some attention from me and to let them know that I love them. I will update with any new news......Hopefully it will be that Truper is coming home.
