Garrett....

So I have not blogged in quite some time and so much has happened. First I now have an adorable new nephew. His name is Garrett! He was born about 5 weeks early and for the first few days of his life he had to deal with laying in a "tent" not having the closeness of his mother and father. He could not be held and was hooked up to machines and tubes. By about the third day, he had most of the tubes removed, however, he still had the feeding tube in. A few days after that, the feeding tube was removed and he was able to be held. We have the most precious picture of him smiling in his sleep.

He finally got to go home night before last. It is such a miracle that he has survived everything that his poor little body has already gone through. I am so excited to be able to go visit him in October.
