Homecoming

Elijah David has come home! We are so thrilled that he has come home with us, a little earlier than expected. He did so well at the hospital that they couldn't imagine him staying any longer, even making a last minute decision to send him home today instead of tomorrow!

I think that it is so awesome to have him here, and I was so blessed this evening to take a short nap holding him on the couch. Chrissy is excited to have him around too. I was expecting her to be a little jealous or just not want him around, but in some ways I think she is more excited about him than Liz or I are. It is so cute, twice today she went up to where he was laying and asked if she could "have a turn" with him. So I picked him up and took him over to the couch and she sat quietly beside me and gently stroked his brow. Her comment: "so soft". We'll see how long her interest stays before she begins to be jealous of all the extra attention he gets.

Tonight begins the first night of midnight feedings for me...please keep us in your prayers. :)
