Surprise!! Caleb is HOME!!

On Thursday, they told us that Caleb may come home on Monday (Labor Day), so bring in the car seat to see how he does in it. Having heard other stories from other parents in the NICU about how things didn't work out, we waited to tell everyone. Then on Friday, they said, well, he's doing so good, he's going to go home tomorrow (Saturday!!)

As I am typing this, Caleb is in the next room drifting off to sleep after taking a bottle feed. We brought him home at about 11 AM this morning. He's doing fine and adjusting well to his new surroundings. His "goat-boy" noises assure me that he likes his room.

Whoa, it still feels very surreal. And I guess now is when the real fun begins. He feeds every 3 hours. Here we go!

I'll post some pics and send out an update email a little later today.

Thanks again to everyone for all the prayers, encouragement, meals, etc.

God is always good, but He's chosen to be so gracious to us!
