Coming Home Soon!

We were told Thursday that you would be coming home over the weekend. You've had some good heart rate drops so they have decided to have you stay a little longer. They are planning on sending you home on Monday or Tuesday! Daddy and I are excited and scared. Some of your nurses started to say goodbye tonight and it's hard to hold in the tears. These people have become family to us and they've taken such good care of you. Your feeding tube also came out within the last 24 hours. Daddy and I will be "rooming in" in a room beside the NICU Saturday and Sunday night to get use to taking care of you on our own. We had our CPR training tonight and will have your monitor training tomorrow and then oxygen training on the day you get discharged.

Cooper, we feel so blessed to have you in our lives. You mean the world to us and we are so excited that you are coming home soon!

Picture of you with no feeding tube:

Yesterday's Milestone - 6 pounds! You're 6 pounds 2 ounces tonight!!!
