We're Home

After two weeks and one day in the hospital, little Brett was finally able to come home yesterday! Daddy and Mommy are SO excited to have our precious little bundle with us all of the time now!!!!
Brett did very well on the ride home, with only a couple of whimpers along the way. Grammy McFarland and a couple of the Aunties were at our house to welcome us home when we pulled in the driveway, and had decorated with blue balloons to celebrate the momentous occasion. Grampy McFarland stopped in after work just to say "Hi", and Uncle Jay visited later in the evening and held Brett for quite awhile. That was the first time he had been able to hold him, and he was so nervous that Brett would break in his arms. He was a natural at it though, and Brett just slept the whole time he held him.
We had a pretty good night for the first night home. Brett woke up about every 3 1/2 hours to be fed and have his diaper changed, but in between feedings we all got some pretty good sleep. Daddy took one of the feeding shifts for Mommy as well, and that helped out SO much.
 Thank you all so much for your prayers for us! We appreciate them all, and are so glad to be home! :-)
