We FINALLY got to bring Ethan home Thursday Dec. 3rd!! He is doing swell. He is making a sucker out of mom and dad. He really likes to snuggle and is finding out so do mom and dad.
It's going to take some adjusting. The NICU becomes a comfortable place to be after being there for over 12 weeks. we've become so familiar with the surroundings and the people; built relationships with the nurses and Dr.s. that have taken such good care of our boys. They went above and beyond to make us feel at home. Some of the nurses took pictures of the boys and made scrapbook pages for them. They made little plaques with Nicolas and Ethans' little feet prints on them to hang on our nursery wall. The personal interest everyone showed made us feel special. It really helped us through this rough spot.
Ethan is on an apnea monitor for now, which helps us sleep easier at night knowing that he is ok. He is doing great and getting us prepared for round two when Nicolas comes home. We are hoping to have him home within a week or two.
