Adjusting

Brian, Drake, Kennedy & I are in the process of adjusting to life at home. Our days are very full and we are settling into a routine. Today we accomplished getting a portion of our baby items sorted and organized, Brian did some grocery shopping, and we bathed both babies. This morning we met with an at-home nursing company who will be coming to help out with Drake. Hopefully we will have someone start with us next Monday.

Brian and I are both becoming more comfortable with Drake's feeding pump and oxygen machine. As much as we would love to simply pick him up and carry him around the house like we do with Kennedy, that just isn't possible quite yet. We are tethered by the distance his tubing will reach. He just needs a little more time, but at least he is home with us.

Tomorrow morning Drake and Kennedy have an appointment with their pediatrician. I am so glad Brian is taking this time off of work, so we can all adjust together.

  1. Oh, it's so awesome to see all of you home together! I just know little Kennedy and Drake will settle in quickly and thrive being exactly where they belong. It's amazing how well we ALL do at home versus a hospital setting.

    Cherish this sweet time of sleeplessness...it really does go by fast.

    Every day, I show my 1-1/2 year old daughter pictures of "the babies" and I can't wait to show her pictures of "the babies at home" tomorrow.

    Blessings!
