EVERYONE IS FINALLY HOME!!!

WE'RE HOME!!!!!
Well, it was one long month and a day, but we finally have our boys home from the NICU and we are so thrilled. What a difference it makes to not be running back and forth from the hospital! The boys actually came home on different days, Noah came home on the 12th and Caleb on the 15th. It was excruciating to just get to take Noah, but we counted our blessings and grabbed them out of there when we could!

All ready for the car ride home. What a GLORIOUS day!!


In their bassinet together, the same one their dad slept in when he was a baby. They have seperate cradles, but they love to be close, so for nap time we love to put them together. Caleb is on the left and Noah on the right. Noah came home on a whiff of oxygen, as the doctors like to call it. Most Denver NICU babies need a little extra O2, but it helps relieve the pressure of getting them confused right now! :)

Caleb's first bath at home.

Noah is always trying and succeeding to yank on his oxygen tube. It should be a few more weeks with it in, but again we count our blessings.

Our first walk to the park in the double stroller. The boys just loved it by falling fast asleep.

Daddy sleeping with our precious angels. Lots of times at night and early morning we like to see if they will sleep just a little bit longer with us. For the most part, they are on the same schedule which makes it easier.

I am working on the art of multi-tasking :)

Jonathan getting to come home from a stressful day and watch the Broncos game with his boys. It just melted the stress away.

Our little men! We are just in heaven enjoying our beautiful new gifts!
