Well hello there readers....we've made it through our first night with Dylan at home. And so far, so good. I mean, it just gets easier, right? Yeah right. We took shifts for the feeds and that seemed to work out pretty decently. I'm sure it will take a few weeks to get into a groove. We'll probably get into a rhythm just before Kaylan gets home. Landon had to work today but he's off for the next 10 days. We're looking forward to playing, loving, and cuddling with Dylan.
But as happy as we are to have him home, it's still an incomplete feeling knowing our sweet Kaylan is still laying in the hospital and will be for some time longer. When Landon got off work, I went to see her tonight at 6 p.m. and then he went at 9 p.m. I held her and talked to her and I think she understands ;)
Please pray that we can some how get rest in the midst of hospital trips, every three hour feedings and Landon having to work. Monday, Dylan will have his first pediatrician appt. So you can also be in prayer for us as we try to get ourselves and Dylan ready and fed, and get to Plano by 9 a.m.
Kaylan is up to 3.8 lbs so that's a big praise! Dylan was discharged at 6 lbs and 8.8 oz. :-)
Well that's it for now... I'd say good night, but we won't be going to bed for awhile :)

Thanks for the update, Jennifer. We're here, and very anxious to help however we can. We'll just get in line. ;). Kaylan has spent her life blowing the lid off of all kinds of statistics and expectations. I'll pray she keeps it up. Rapid growth and development with no setbacks! Love you guys. Hope we can see you soon.
Could you have even imagined this day weeks and months ago? I read an interesting poem the other day about if we could ask an unborn baby why it stays in the womb when there is so much wonderful stuff in the world, it would say, "This IS the world." It can't imagine anything else.
When you're taking it one day (or sometimes one hour) at a time, it gets hard to imagine the future. The future is here, now that Dylan is home. The other future, with Kaylen home, really is going to happen, too!
I'm definitely praying for rest and supernatural strength for you guys! Can't wait to come see him, but didn't know if you're up to visitors. Ready for some meals?
SOON!!! Soon they will both be home and this will be a memory. Praying for you and the final stretch!
