Good day/SAD Day....





In case you skipped over it, I posted some pictures of Miss Chloe at home on the post before this. I have been getting some heat for not posting lately. You people are impatient! Just kidding. Things have been a little crazy, so I am trying to make up for lost time tonight.

So today, we were able to take Mr. Jackson home. After a little debate about whether it should be today or tomorrow, the NICU conceded and let us take him home tonight as planned. It was extremely bitter sweet: on the one hand, we were taking another one of our babes home. On the other hand, it was very hard to leave Mr. Lucas there by himself. He is in great care there with all the nurses that love on those kids, but it is still hard as a parent to leave our last little one there. Not that we have yet to realize what is actually happening here. In fact, it feels more like Kristen and I have ordered something from a department store in Seattle (Macy's NICU department) and are just making a day trip to go get the "package." 2 down, one to go.

Today's package: a cute little boy named Jackson. Pretty cool getting to take the little Minnie Might home today. Here are some pics, both of his arrival and of him with his sister. Those are the first pics I have of them two of them together since the night of their birth as they were getting ready to head down to the NICU! Where did the last 3 weeks go?! Enjoy. And please continue to pray for Lucas, as we are just not complete here without him. Yes, the driving is getting to be a bit much, but more importantly, we just need to get him home so we can really start life as a "family." Thanks.
